Abstract

A memory device includes a substrate, a semiconductor fin over the substrate and extending in a first direction, and a first gate electrode and a second gate electrode over the substrate and extending in a second direction. The semiconductor fin extends through the second gate electrode and terminates on the first gate electrode at one end. The memory device further includes a first conductive via over and electrically coupled to the first gate electrode. The one end of the semiconductor fin is surrounded by the first gate electrode.
