For example, can be adjustedThe flow rate of silane is adjusted, or the flow rate of germane is adjusted, or the flow rates of silane and germane are adjusted simultaneously. Subsequently, a filling layer filled with an insulating material, such as silicon oxide, may be formed between the channel layers 235.
In this embodiment, the gate line gap is formed in the stacked layer, for example, the stacked layer may be etched by using a reactive ion etching method, so that the gate line gap exposing the substrate is formed in the stacked layer. After the gate line gap is formed, the sacrificial layer 222 in the stacked layer is removed through the gate line gap, the sacrificial layer 222 may be selectively corroded by an acid solution having a high selection ratio to the sacrificial layer 222 and the insulating layer 221, and after the sacrificial layer 222 is removed, a gate layer is formed by filling a metal in an area of the original sacrificial layer, where the filled metal may be tungsten or other metal that may be used as a gate.
