Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for self-refresh of memory cells are described. A controller coupled with a memory cell may be configured to apply a first voltage to a control gate of a first transistor, where the first voltage activates the first transistor to selectively couple terminals of the first transistor with each other based on a charge stored on the interstitial gate. The controller may be configured to apply a current to a bit line, where a second voltage of the bit line is based on the current and the charge stored on the interstitial gate. The controller may be configured to apply, based on applying the first voltage to the control gate of the first transistor and applying the current to the bit line, a third voltage to a gate of a second transistor to couple the bit line with the interstitial gate of the first transistor.
