Summary:A memory die includes source-select-level electrically conductive strips laterally spaced apart by source-select-level dielectric isolation structures, an alternating stack of word-line-level electrically conductive layers and insulating layers; and source strips located on an opposite side of the source-select-level electrically conductive strips. Each of the source strips has an areal overlap with only a respective one of the source-select-level electrically conductive strips. Memory stack structures vertically extend through the alternating stack and a respective subset of the source-select-level electrically conductive strips. A logic die may be bonded to the memory die on an opposite side of the source strips. Each source strip is electrically connected to a respective group of memory stack structures laterally surrounded by a respective source-select-level electrically conductive strip.
