Abstract

Embodiments of three-dimensional (3D) memory devices and methods for forming the 3D memory devices are provided. In an example, a 3D memory device includes a plurality of conductor layers extending over a substrate, a channel structure extending vertically through the conductor layers to the substrate, and a source structure extending through the conductor layers to the substrate. The channel structure may include a barrier layer having a plurality of barrier portions not connected to each other. Each barrier portion may include (i) a vertical barrier portion underlying the corresponding conductor layer, and (ii) at least one lateral barrier portion covering a respective lateral surface of the corresponding conductor layer. The channel structure may further include a memory layer having a plurality of memory portions not connected to each other, each memory portion under and in contact with a corresponding vertical barrier portion.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to three-dimensional (3D) memory devices and methods of manufacturing the same. Background technique [0002] Planar memory cells are scaled down to smaller sizes by improving process technology, circuit design, programming algorithms, and manufacturing processes. However, as the feature size of the memory cell approaches the lower limit, the planar process and fabrication techniques become difficult and costly. Therefore, the storage density of planar memory cells approaches the upper limit. [0003] 3D memory architectures can deal with the limited density of planar memory cells. A 3D memory architecture includes a memory array and peripherals for controlling signals to and from the memory array. Contents of the invention [0004] Embodiments of 3D memory devices and fabrication methods for forming 3D memory devices are disclosed herein. [0005] In one example, a 3D memory device may include: a plur...
