Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a first stack group having first interlayer insulating layers and first gate layers, alternately and repeatedly stacked on a substrate and a second stack group comprising second interlayer insulating layers and second gate layers, alternately and repeatedly stacked on the first stack group. Separation structures pass through the first and second stack groups and include a first separation region and a second separation region. A vertical structure passes through the first and second stack groups and includes a first vertical region and a second vertical region. A conductive line is electrically connected to the vertical structure on the second stack group. A distance between an upper end of the first vertical region and an upper surface of the substrate is greater than a distance between an upper end of the first separation region and an upper surface of the substrate.
