Abstract:
A memory device includes a memory cell array including a first switch cell, a second switch cell, and a plurality of memory cells disposed between the first the second switch cells and connected to a plurality of word lines, and a control circuit configured to perform a program operation by providing a program voltage to a first word line among the plurality of word lines, a switch voltage to a second word line among the plurality of word lines, and a pass voltage to remaining word lines among the plurality of word lines, wherein the control circuit is configured to turn off the first switch cell and the second switch cell in a first section of the program operation, and configured to turn on the first switch cell and increase the switch voltage in a second section of the program operation later than the first section.

Claim (Index 20):
A memory device, comprising:\n a channel region extended in a direction perpendicular to an upper surface of a semiconductor substrate; a plurality of word lines stacked on the semiconductor substrate to surround the channel region, and including a program word line and a switch word line located above the program word line; a ground select line between the plurality of word lines and the semiconductor substrate; a string select line above the plurality of word lines; and a control circuit configured to boost a voltage of the channel region located in each of an upper portion and a lower portion of the switch word line by providing a ground voltage to the ground select line and the string select line, providing a program voltage to the program word line, providing a switch voltage at a first level to the switch word line, and providing a pass voltage to remaining word lines of the plurality of word lines, wherein the control circuit is configured to perform a program operation with respect to a memory cell connected to the program word line by increasing the switch voltage to a second level higher than the first level, after a voltage of the string select line is increased.
