Abstract

A device structure includes a two-dimensional array of memory cells embedded in a memory-level dielectric layer and overlying a substrate; first access lines electrically connected to a respective row of memory cells within the two-dimensional array; and a first decoder circuit including first cantilever nanoelectromechanical devices that overlie the two-dimensional array of memory cells, are embedded in upper dielectric material layers, and have output nodes that are electrically connected to a respective first access line selected from the first access lines.
