1. A three-dimensional (3D) memory device, comprising:
a memory stack comprising interleaved conductive layers and dielectric layers over a first side of a second semiconductor layer;
channel structures extending vertically through the memory stack and into the second semiconductor layer;
source contacts in contact with a second side of the second semiconductor layer opposite to the first side; and
a backside interconnect layer over the second side of the second semiconductor layer and comprising interlayer dielectric (ILD) layers and a source line mesh on the ILD layers, wherein the source contacts are distributed on a side of the source line mesh, and the source contacts extend through the ILD layers and into the second semiconductor layer.
