Abstract

A vertical non-volatile memory device includes a channel on a substrate and extending in a first direction perpendicular to an upper surface of the substrate, a first charge storage structure on an outer sidewall of the channel, a second charge storage structure on an inner sidewall of the channel, first gate electrodes spaced apart from each other in the first direction on the substrate, each which surrounds the first charge storage structure, and a second gate electrode on an inner sidewall of the second charge storage structure.
