[0003] However, in the current 3D NAND memory device, the step structure is arranged at both ends of the stack structure, and the step structure is in a single-side driving mode. As the number of stack layers increases, each stack layer is designed to be thinner and thinner, and the corresponding The resistance is getting larger and larger, resulting in a larger and more obvious driving time delay

Embodiment 1
[0070] like figure 2 shown, combined with Figure 3-11 , an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for manufacturing a stepped structure, comprising the steps of:
[0071] S1, providing a substrate 1, and forming a stack structure 2 on the substrate 1;
[0072] S2. Form partition steps 231 and 232 on the stack structure 2, and divide the stack structure 2 into a first core area A1, a stepped area B, and a second core area A2 arranged in sequence along the extending direction of the storage block;
[0073] S3. Form a barrier layer in the stepped area B, and selectively etch the barrier layer, and form a plurality of first bridge structures 2031 and second bridge structures 2032 in the stepped area B, and the first bridge structures 2031 connect the first core area A1 and the first core area A1. In the second core area A2, two adjacent first bridge structures 2031 are connected by a second bridge structure 2032, and the step area B is divided into a plurality o...
Embodiment 2
[0124] In the first embodiment, there is only one second bridge structure 2032 for buffer support between two adjacent first bridge structures 2031, and the structural stability of the first bridge structure 2031 and the step structure 203 needs to be strengthened. Based on this , some improvements are made in this embodiment.
[0125] like Figure 13 and Figure 14 As shown, this embodiment proposes a method for manufacturing a stepped structure. When forming a barrier layer in the stepped region B and selectively etching the barrier layer, two adjacent first bridge structures 2031 are connected by at least one second bridge structure 2032, That is, two adjacent first bridge structures 2031 may be connected by one second bridge structure 2032 , or by two second bridge structures 2032 , or by three or more second bridge structures 2032 .
[0126] In detail, such as Figure 13 As shown, in the step area B, some adjacent two first bridge structures 2031 are connected through ...

Abstract
The invention provides a manufacturing method of a 3D NAND memory device and the 3D NAND memory device. A step structure is arranged in the middle of a stacking structure and comprises a plurality ofpartition step structures, a first bridge structure and a second bridge structure. Through the first bridge structure connected with the first core region and the second core region and the partitionstep structure, bilateral driving of the step structure is achieved, driving can be conducted from the middle of the stacking structure to the storage array structures in the first core region and thesecond core region, the corresponding driving resistance is reduced, and the problem of driving time delay is effectively reduced. Every two adjacent first bridge structures are connected through atleast one second bridge structure, in other words, the second bridge structures are arranged between every two adjacent first bridge structures for supporting and buffering, the stress difference between stacked composite layers in the first bridge structures and subsequently-filled oxide can be effectively relieved, and the structural stability of the first bridge structures and the structural stability of the step structures are improved.
Description
technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor manufacturing, in particular to a method for manufacturing a 3D NAND storage device and the 3D NAND storage device. Background technique [0002] 3D NAND storage devices need to stack data units. The current double-layer stacking technology can achieve 72-layer, 96-layer or even 128-layer data unit stacking, which overcomes the limitation of the actual expansion limit of planar memory and further improves storage capacity, lower storage costs per data bit, and lower energy consumption. [0003] However, in the current 3D NAND memory devices, the step structure is arranged at both ends of the stack structure, and the step structure is in a single-side driving mode. As the number of stack layers increases, each stack layer is designed to be thinner and thinner, and the corresponding Larger and larger resistors lead to larger and more pronounced drive time delays.
