<p>A vertical NAND structure includes one or more mid-string devices having at least two functional modes. In the first mode, the one or more mid-string devices couple the bodies of stacks of NAND memory cells to the substrate for erase operations. In the second mode, the one or more mid-string devices couple the body of a first stack of NAND memory cells to a body of a second stack of memory NAND memory cells, allowing the two stacks operate as a single NAND string for read and programming operations.</p> |
