Abstract

An integrated dynamic random access memory element includes two cells for the storage of two respective bits. A source region and a drain region are included. Each cell comprises a field-effect transistor having a gate and an intermediate portion which extend between the source and drain regions. A channel is provided in the intermediate portion of the transistor for each cell. A polarization electrode is placed between the respective intermediate portions of the two transistors. This polarization electrode is capacitively coupled to the intermediate portion of each transistor and is used to store the first and second bits.
