Abstract

An insulating pattern is disposed on a surface of a semiconductor substrate and includes a silicon oxynitride film. A conductive pattern is disposed on the insulating pattern. A data storage pattern and a vertical channel pattern are disposed within a channel hole formed to vertically penetrate the insulating pattern and the conductive pattern. The data storage pattern and the vertical channel pattern are conformally stacked along sidewalls of the insulating pattern and the conductive pattern. A concave portion is formed in the semiconductor substrate adjacent to the insulating pattern. The concave portion is recessed relative to a bottom surface of the insulating pattern.
