Abstract:
Semiconductor devices are provided. A semiconductor device includes first and second stacks of electrodes. Moreover, the semiconductor device includes first and second connection lines that connect the first and second stacks of electrodes. In some embodiments, the first connection lines have a first length and the second connection lines have a second length that is longer than the first length of the first connection lines. In some embodiments, the first connection lines connect inner portions of the first stack of electrodes to inner portions of the second stack of electrodes. In some embodiments, the second connection lines connect outer portions of the first stack of electrodes to outer portions of the second stack of electrodes.

Claim (Index 13):
A semiconductor device, comprising:\n a substrate comprising a cell array region and a connection region; first and second electrode structures that extend in a first direction on the substrate and are spaced apart from each other in a second direction that intersects the first direction, each of the first and second electrode structures comprising first and second electrodes vertically and alternatingly stacked on the substrate and comprising a stair-step structure on the connection region, wherein each of the first electrodes comprises a first pad region at an end portion thereof and each of the second electrodes comprises a second pad region at an end portion thereof, and wherein, when viewed in a plan view, the first pad regions are arranged in the first direction and each of the second pad regions is adjacent a corresponding one of the first pad regions in the second direction; first contacts connected to the first pad regions, respectively; second contacts connected to the second pad regions, respectively; first connection lines, each of which connects ones of the first contacts that are adjacent each other in the second direction; second connection lines, each of which connects ones of the second contacts that are adjacent each other in the second direction; first metal lines, each of which is connected to ones of the first connection lines in a first group and ones of the second connection lines in the first group, wherein the first metal lines are at a higher level than the first connection lines and the second connection lines; and second metal lines at a higher level than the first metal lines, wherein each of the second metal lines is connected to ones of the first connection lines in a second group and ones of the second connection lines in the second group.
