Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for isolation regions within a memory die are described. During fabrication, memory pillars may be formed through a stack of material in a plurality regions of a memory die. In some cases, a first plurality of trenches extending in a first direction and a second plurality of trenches extending in a second direction may be formed through the stack of material (e.g., interposed between the plurality of regions). Additionally or alternatively, first voids may be formed via the first plurality of trenches, and a dielectric material may be deposited in the first voids and the first plurality of trenches, forming first isolation regions. Then, second voids may be formed via the second plurality of trenches, and a dielectric material may be deposited in the second voids and the second plurality of trenches, forming second isolation regions.
