Abstract
A three-dimensional memory device is provided. The three-dimensional memory device may include a substrate, a cell stack, a string selection line gate electrode, a lower vertical channel structure, an upper vertical channel structure, and a bit line. The string selection line gate electrode may include a lower string selection line gate electrode and an upper string selection line gate electrode formed on an upper surface of the lower string selection line gate electrode. The lower string selection line gate electrode may include N-doped poly-crystalline silicon. The upper string selection line gate electrode may include silicide.
