Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a substrate and a gate structure disposed over the substrate. The gate structure includes gate electrode layers and interlayer insulation structures that are alternately stacked with each other. The semiconductor device includes a dielectric structure disposed over the substrate to contact a sidewall surface of the gate structure, and a channel layer disposed on a sidewall surface of the dielectric structure over the substrate. Each of the interlayer insulation structure includes an insulation layer and a metal-organic framework layer that are disposed on the same plane.
