Abstract

Embodiments relate to a semiconductor device and a forming method. The semiconductor device includes: a substrate; a memory array positioned on the substrate and at least including memory cells spaced along a first direction, each of the memory cells including a transistor, the transistor including a gate electrode, channel regions distributed on two opposite sides of the gate electrode along a third direction, and a source region and a drain region distributed on two opposite sides of each of the channel regions along a second direction, the first direction and the third direction being directions parallel to a top surface of the substrate, the first direction intersecting with the third direction, and the second direction being a direction perpendicular to the top surface of the substrate; and a word line extending along the first direction and continuously electrically connected to the gate electrodes spaced along the first direction.
