Abstract
Devices and methods for forming a device are presented. The device includes a substrate having a well of a first polarity type and a thyristor-based memory cell. The thyristor-based memory cell includes at least a first region of a second polarity type adjacent to the well, a gate which serves as a second word line disposed on the substrate, at least a first layer of the first polarity type disposed adjacent to the first region of the second polarity type and adjacent to the gate, and at least a heavily doped first layer of the second polarity type disposed on the first layer of the first polarity type and adjacent to the gate. At least the heavily doped first layer of the second polarity type is self-aligned with side of the gate.
