Abstract

A three-dimensional semiconductor device includes a stacked structure including a plurality of conductive layers stacked on a substrate, a distance along a first direction between sidewalls of an upper conductive layer and a lower conductive layer being smaller than a distance along a second direction between sidewalls of the upper conductive layer and the lower conductive layer, the first and second directions crossing each other and defining a plane parallel to a surface supporting the substrate, and vertical channel structures penetrating the stacked structure.
