Patent attributes
A non-volatile memory device may include a plurality of stacked semiconductor layers, a plurality of NAND strings, a common bit line, a common source line, and/or a plurality of string selection lines. The plurality of NAND strings may be on the plurality of semiconductor layers. Each of the plurality of NAND strings may include a plurality of memory cells and/or at least one string selection transistor arranged in a NAND-cell array. The common bit line may be commonly connected to each of the NAND strings at a first end of the memory cells. The common source line may be commonly connected to each of the NAND strings at a second end of the memory cells. The plurality of string selection lines may be coupled to the at least one string selection transistor included in each of the NAND strings such that a signal applied to the common bit line is selectively applied to the NAND strings.
