Three-dimensional semiconductor memory device including separation region and electronic system including the same

Abstract

A three-dimensional semiconductor memory device may include a substrate including a first connection region, a first cell region, a separation region, a second cell region, and a second connection region, which are sequentially disposed in a first direction, a stack structure including electrode layers and insulating layers, which are alternately stacked on the substrate, the electrode layers including upper electrode layers, a first insulating line pattern on the separation region to penetrate the upper electrode layers and extend in a second direction crossing the first direction, second and third insulating line patterns on the separation region to penetrate the first insulating line pattern and the stack structure and to extend in the second direction to divide the stack structure into first and second sub-stack structures, and a remaining stack structure between the second and third insulating line patterns and spaced apart from the first and second sub-stack structures.
