Abstract
A novel memory device is provided. The memory device includes a plurality of first wirings extending in a first direction, a plurality of memory element groups, and an oxide layer extending along a side surface of the first wiring. Each of the memory element groups includes a plurality of memory elements. Each of the memory elements includes a first transistor and a capacitor. A gate electrode of the first transistor is electrically connected to the first wiring. The oxide layer includes a region in contact with a semiconductor layer of the first transistor. A second transistor is provided between the adjacent memory element groups. A high power supply potential is supplied to one or both of a source electrode and a drain electrode of the second transistor.
