Abstract:
A substrate processing method includes stacking a plurality of stack structures each including an insulating layer and a sacrificial layer, on one another. The method also includes generating a stair structure by etching the stack structures and generating a separation layer on a side surface of the stair structure. The method further includes removing the sacrificial layer and generating conductive word line structures in spaces from which the sacrificial layer is removed. The separation layer is provided between the conductive word line structures.

Claim (Index 2):
The substrate processing method of  claim 1 , further comprising:\n generating a pad layer on the sacrificial layer; and generating an interlayer insulating layer on the stair structure, wherein the generating of the conductive word line structures comprises: removing the sacrificial layer and the pad layer; and filling a conductive material in spaces from which the sacrificial layer and the pad layer are removed.
