  • Publication number: 20250031380
    Abstract: A memory device including a plurality of memory cells, at least one of the plurality of memory cells includes a first transistor, a second transistor, and a third transistor. The first transistor includes a first drain/source path and a first gate structure electrically coupled to a write word line. The second transistor includes a second drain/source path and a second gate structure electrically coupled to the first drain/source path of the first transistor. The third transistor includes a third drain/source path electrically coupled to the second drain/source path of the second transistor and a third gate structure electrically coupled to a read word line. Where, the first transistor, and/or the second transistor, and/or the third transistor is a ferroelectric field effect transistor or a negative capacitance field effect transistor.
