摘要: A memory device includes a first transistor, a second transistor and a third transistor. The first transistor is coupled to a first word line at a first node. The second transistor is coupled to a second word line different from the first word line at a second node. A control terminal of the first transistor is coupled to a control terminal of the second transistor. The third transistor is coupled between a ground and a third node which is coupled to each of the first node and the second node. In a layout view, each of the first transistor and the second transistor has a first length along a direction. The first transistor, the third transistor and second transistor are arranged in order along the direction. A method is also disclosed herein.

摘要: A method includes forming a fin structure including a plurality of first semiconductor layers and a plurality of second semiconductor layers alternately stacked over a substrate. A dummy gate structure is formed across the fin structure. The exposed second portions of the fin structure are removed. A selective etching process is performed, using a gas mixture including a hydrogen-containing gas and a fluorine-containing gas, to laterally recess the first semiconductor layers. Inner spacers are formed on opposite end surfaces of the laterally recessed first semiconductor layers. Source/drain epitaxial structures are formed on opposite end surfaces of the second semiconductor layers. The dummy gate structure is removed to expose the first portion of the fin structure. The laterally recessed first semiconductor layers are removed. A gate structure is formed to surround each of the second semiconductor layers.
