    摘要: A method for forming a three-dimensional (3D) memory device includes forming a cut structure in a stack structure. The stack structure includes interleaved a plurality of initial sacrificial layers and a plurality of initial insulating layers. The method also includes removing portions of the stack structure adjacent to the cut structure to form a slit structure and an initial support structure. The initial support structure divides the slit structure into a plurality of slit openings. The method further includes forming a plurality of conductor portions in the initial support structure through the plurality of slit openings. The method also includes forming a source contact in each of the plurality of slit openings. The method also includes removing portions of the initial support structure to form a support structure. The support structure includes an adhesion portion extending through the support structure. In addition, the method includes forming an adhesion layer over the source contact in each of the plurality of slit openings. At least two adhesion layers are conductively connected to the adhesion portion extending through the support structure.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to a three-dimensional memory and a manufacturing method thereof. The three-dimensional memory includes: a stack structure comprising a plurality of alternately stacked gate layers and dielectric layers; a plurality of channel structures vertically penetrating the stack structure; a first gate line slit structure extending along a first horizontal direction and dividing the plurality of channel structures into two memory blocks, wherein the first gate line slit structure is partitioned by a plurality of first isolation regions into a plurality of first gate line slit sub-structures; and a plurality of first connection structures each connecting, along the first horizontal direction, adjacent first gate line slit sub-structures partitioned by one first isolation region.
