Abstract:
Embodiments of three-dimensional (3D) memory devices and methods for forming the 3D memory devices are disclosed. In an example, a NAND memory device includes a substrate, a plurality of NAND strings on the substrate, one or more peripheral devices above the NAND strings, a single crystalline silicon layer above the peripheral devices, and one or more interconnect layers between the peripheral devices and the NAND strings. In some embodiments, the NAND memory device includes a bonding interface at which an array interconnect layer contacts a peripheral interconnect layer.

Claim (Index 31):
A three-dimensional (3D) memory device, comprising:\n a substrate; a plurality of NAND strings, wherein a first surface of the plurality of NAND strings opposes a second surface of the plurality of NAND strings, and the second surface of the plurality of NAND strings is in contact with a first surface of the substrate; one or more first interconnect layers, wherein a first surface of the one or more first interconnect layers opposes a second surface of the one or more first interconnect layers, and the second surface of the one or more first interconnect layers is in contact with the first surface of the plurality of NAND strings; one or more peripheral devices, wherein a first surface of the one or more peripheral devices opposes a second surface of the one or more peripheral devices, and the second surface of the one or more peripheral devices is in contact with the first surface of the one or more first interconnect layers; and a single crystalline silicon layer, wherein a first surface of the single crystalline silicon layer opposes a second surface of the single crystalline silicon layer, and the second surface of the single crystalline silicon layer is in contact with the first surface of the one or more peripheral devices.
