SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18103070 titled 'SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a semiconductor device that includes multiple layers, including gate layers, a channel layer, a string select gate layer, and a string select channel layer. The string select channel layer has three portions, including a first portion below the string select gate layer with a protruding region, a second portion extending through the string select gate layer, and a third portion above the string select gate layer with a second protruding region.

  • The semiconductor device includes gate layers stacked on a substrate.
  • The device has a channel layer that extends through the gate layers.
  • A string select gate layer is placed on the channel layer.
  • The string select channel layer extends through the string select gate layer to contact the channel layer.
  • The string select channel layer has three portions: a first portion below the string select gate layer with a protruding region, a second portion that extends through the string select gate layer, and a third portion above the string select gate layer with a second protruding region.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Semiconductor manufacturing
  • Electronics industry
  • Integrated circuits
