The 3D NAND Memory Market Size was valued at USD 25.59 Billion in 2022. The 3D NAND Memory industry is projected to grow from USD 32.19 Billion in 2023 to USD 78.42 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.03% during the forecast period (2024 - 2032). A newer non-volatile flash memory device called 3D NAND has layers upon layers of memory cells stacked vertically. To improve the performance of flash memory, 3D NAND solutions are also made to raise maximum chip capacity and decrease cost per bit. Additionally, 3D NAND uses charge trap technology as opposed to a standard floating rate. Based on silicon nitride sheets, charge-trap memory holds a charge on the memory's opposing sides.

South Korea’s Samsung Electronics Co. launched its latest 286-layer NAND chips in April 2024, boosting storage capacity by 50 percent. Google and Apple, among other tech giants, received samples that were directed at AI data centers and smartphones.
Kioxia of Japan disclosed a plan in April 2024 to produce over 1000 layers of 3D-NAND memory by 2031. Hidefumi Miyajima, CTO, explained the technical problems associated with this as well as how they can be resolved, which he delivered during the lecture held at Tokyo City University for the first Applied Physical Society Spring Meeting.
YMTC of China had the world's most advanced three-dimensional NAND flash memory chip, X3-9070, consisting of a staggering two hundred and thirty-two individual X-train photo-transistor layers despite US sanctions against it in October 2023. This was an exemplary illustration of how China has been steadfast in its quest to grow its semiconductor business amidst global challenges.
SK Hynix announced its groundbreaking 321-layer NAND flash technology based on Charge Trap Flash at the Flash Memory Summit in August 2023, marking a significant advancement over previous models in terms of storage density and performance. The silicon die containing four such stacked cells could store up to one terabit (Tbit), thereby delivering substantial improvement in chip area efficiency compared to prior technologies.
At the recent Flash Memory Summit held in Santa Clara in July 2023, California NEO CEO Andy Hsu presented an innovative new type of AI chip that uses a novel “Local Computing” technique built around this new paradigm showed a significant advantage over all prior designs (Wang et al.,2019). His speech was entitled: “Revolutionary New Artificial Intelligence Chips Based on Innovative Architectures.”
China’s Yangtze Memory revealed their new product in October 2023 called Xtacking enhanced technology-based 120 layers ‘NAND flash’ memory, reportedly motivated by US restrictions limiting the supply of 3D NAND to China. The idea behind this technology was to bridge the performance gap that existed within the conventional 2D NAND structures, which had limited capacity for both write and read operations.
In December 2023, senior lead engineer Richard Pasto of Intel joined SK Hynix’s Research & Development team headquarters in South Korea. He added his experience of twenty-eight years by joining Intel experts like Rezaul Haque (June) and Erika Shiple (November).
Japan-based Tokyo Electron announced a major breakthrough in 3D-NAND flash memory technology in October 2023, which poses a significant threat to Lam Research’s industry leadership position. It proposed a method of etching channel holes into memory cells, thereby increasing the density of stored information.
