Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, in the process of forming channel holes by using the above multiple stacks, due to the influence of stress and other factors, there will be overlay deviations in the photoresist layer between the channel holes in the upper stack and the channel holes in the lower stack. When the SONO at the bottom of the channel is opened to form a circuit loop between the substrate well layer (usually P well) and the channel layer, it will cause the top layer structure at the lower end of the upper channel hole at the layer-to-layer connection (that is, ONO) Damaged, which reduces the yield rate and reliability failure of the three-dimensional NAND memory device structure

Abstract

The invention provides a three-dimensional NAND memory device structure and a preparation method thereof. The method comprises the following steps: forming a first laminated structure and a second laminated structure with communicated channel holes on a support substrate; forming a functional layer, a channel layer and a filling dielectric on the surface of the channel hole; forming a gate gap; filling a gap insulating layer in the gate gap; removing the support substrate, and forming a third laminated structure on the back surface of the first laminated structure; etching the third laminatedstructure to form a first etching window, and removing the functional layer at the bottom of the first channel hole based on the first etching window; and filling a channel connection layer in the first etching window. The channel connection layer is formed at the corresponding position of the back surface of the channel hole, so that the risk that the functional layer at the connecting part of the upper channel hole and the lower channel hole is damaged when the channel connection layer and the channel layer are connected through a process of punching from the front surface of the channel hole is avoided; and in addition, the process for forming the channel connection layer is low in complexity, easy to control and high in yield.
