Abstract
A vertical semiconductor device includes lower circuit patterns disposed on a first substrate. A bonding layer is disposed on the lower circuit patterns. A wire is disposed on the bonding layer. A cell stack structure is disposed on the wire. A base pattern is disposed on the cell stack structure. An upper insulating layer is disposed on the base pattern. A cell contact plug passes through the cell stack structure and extends to the upper insulating layer. A through-plug is disposed inside a through-hole formed through an outer side of the base pattern to extend to the upper insulating layer. Each of the cell contact plug and the through-plug includes a barrier metal pattern and a metal pattern, and the barrier metal pattern is disposed along sidewalls and bottom surfaces of the cell contact hole and the through-hole.
