Abstract:
A vertical memory device includes a gate electrode structure on a substrate, and a channel. The gate electrode structure includes gate electrodes spaced apart from each other in a vertical direction substantially perpendicular to an upper surface of the substrate. The channel extends through the gate electrode structure in the vertical direction on the substrate. The channel includes a first portion having a slanted sidewall with respect to the upper surface of the substrate and a second portion contacting an upper surface of the first portion and having a slanted sidewall with respect to the upper surface of the substrate. A width of an upper surface of the second portion is less than a width of the upper surface of the first portion. An impurity region doped with carbon or p-type impurities is formed at an upper portion of the substrate. The channel contacts the impurity region.

Claim (Index 13):
The vertical memory device of  claim 11 , wherein\n the gate electrode structure includes two first gate electrodes, a plurality of second gate electrodes over the two first gate electrodes, and two third gate electrode over the plurality of second gate electrodes, the two first gate electrodes are disposed at two levels, respectively, from the upper surface of the substrate, each of the two first gate electrodes overlap the first portion of the channel in a horizontal direction substantially parallel to the upper surface of the substrate, the plurality of second gate electrodes are disposed at a plurality of levels over the upper surface of the substrate, the plurality of second gate electrodes overlap the second portion of the channel to the fourth portion of the channel in the horizontal direction, the two third gate electrodes are disposed at two levels, respectively, from the upper surface of the substrate, and each of the two third gate electrodes overlap the fourth portion of the channel in the horizontal direction.
