1. A semiconductor structure, comprising:
a memory die bonded to a logic die, the memory die comprising:
an alternating stack of insulating layers and electrically conductive layers;
a semiconductor material layer located over a distal surface of the alternating stack, wherein the semiconductor material layer is more distal from the logic die than the alternating stack is from the logic die;
a dielectric spacer layer located over a distal surface of the semiconductor material layer;
memory openings vertically extending through the alternating stack, through the semiconductor material layer, and at least partly through the dielectric spacer layer;
memory opening fill structures located in the memory openings, wherein each of the memory opening fill structures comprises a dielectric core, a vertical semiconductor channel having a hollow portion which surrounds the dielectric core and a pillar portion which does not surround the dielectric core, and a memory film; and
a source layer located over a distal surface of the dielectric spacer layer and contacting the pillar portions of the vertical semiconductor channels.
