Abstract

A method of making a monolithic, three dimensional NAND string including a first memory cell located over a second memory cell, includes growing a semiconductor active region of second memory cell, and epitaxially growing a semiconductor active region of the first memory cell on the semiconductor active region of the second memory cell in a different growth step from the step of growing the semiconductor active region of second memory cell.
