Abstract
A semiconductor device includes: vertical channel layers; a pipe channel layer configured to connect lower ends of the vertical channel layers; and a pipe gate surrounding the pipe channel layer and including a first region, which is in contact with the pipe channel layer and includes a first-type impurity, and remaining second regions including a second-type impurity different from the first type impurity.
