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 19):
The vertical memory device of  claim 18 , wherein\n the at least one first gate electrode includes two first gate electrodes disposed at two levels, respectively, from the upper surface of the substrate, each of the two first gate electrodes overlap the lower channel in a horizontal direction substantially parallel to the upper surface of the substrate, and a width of the lower channel corresponding to an upper surface of one of the two first gate electrodes at an upper level is equal to or less than a width of an upper surface of the pad.
