Abstract

A memory device comprises a patterned multi-layers stacking structure, a semiconductor capping layer, a memory layer and a channel layer. The patterned multi-layers stacking structure is formed on a substrate and has at least one trench used to define a plurality of ridge-shaped stacks comprising at least one conductive strip in the patterned multi-layers stacking structure. The semiconductor capping layer covers on the ridge-shaped stacks. The memory layer covers on sidewalls of the trench. The channel layer covers on the memory layer, the semiconductor capping layer and a bottom of the trench, wherein the channel layer is directly in contact with the semiconductor capping layer.
