Abstract

The memory device includes a conductive layer, a plurality of first electrode layers stacked over the conductive layer and spaced from each other in a first direction, a semiconductor layer extending through the first electrode layers in the first direction, a second electrode layer provided between the conductive layer and the first electrode layers, and a semiconductor base, located between the conductive layer and the semiconductor layer and extending through the second electrode layer, wherein the semiconductor base has a first width at a portion thereof extending through the second electrode layer in the first direction and second width at a portion thereof connected to the semiconductor layer, and the first width is greater than the second width.
