Abstract

A vertical semiconductor device and a method for fabricating the same may include forming an alternating stack of dielectric layers and sacrificial layers over a lower structure, forming an opening by etching the alternating stack, forming a non-conformal blocking layer on the alternating stack in which the opening is formed, adsorbing a deposition inhibitor on a surface of the blocking layer to convert the non-conformal blocking layer into a conformal blocking layer on which the deposition inhibitor is adsorbed, and forming a charge storage layer on the conformal blocking layer.
