Abstract

A novel method for manufacturing a 3-D vertical memory comprising the steps of dividing a multilayer structure composed of insulating intermediate layers and sacrificial intermediate layers into a first multilayer structure and a second multilayer structure, replacing the sacrificial intermediate layers in the multilayer structures with metal intermediate layers, and manufacturing the channel structure in two multilayer structures.
