Abstract
To provide a semiconductor memory device that avoids a voltage drop caused by an oxide film formed on a surface of a semiconductor substrate, and appropriately operates even in a case where a memory cell array is formed. A semiconductor memory device including a first transistor, a capacitor provided with a pair of capacitor electrodes opposed to each other via an insulator, one of the capacitor electrodes being electrically coupled to a gate electrode of the first transistor, a second transistor in which one of a source or a drain is electrically coupled to one of a source or a drain of the first transistor and to another of the capacitor electrodes, and a plate line electrically coupled to the gate electrode of the first transistor and to the one of the capacitor electrodes.
