Abstract:
A NOR-type three-dimensional memory device includes a vertically alternating stack of insulating layers and electrically conductive layers located over a substrate, and laterally alternating sequences of respective active region pillars and respective memory stack structures. Each laterally alternating sequence is electrically isolated from the electrically conductive layers by a respective blocking dielectric layer at each level of the electrically conductive layers. Each memory stack structures include a memory film and a semiconductor channel material portion that vertically extend through the vertically alternating stack. The active region pillars include an alternating sequence of source pillar and drain pillars.

Claim (Index 12):
The three-dimensional memory device of  claim 11 , further comprising:\n source lines electrically shorted to a respective one of the source pillars; and drain lines electrically shorted to a respective one of the drain pillars, wherein the three-dimensional memory device has a configuration selected from: a first configuration in which the source lines overlie the first vertically alternating stack and the laterally alternating sequence and the drain lines underlie the first vertically alternating stack and the laterally alternating sequence; and a second configuration in which the drain lines overlie the first vertically alternating stack and the laterally alternating sequence and the source lines underlie the first vertically alternating stack and the laterally alternating sequence.
