Abstract
A static random-access memory (SRAM) cell including a transistor is introduced. The transistor includes substrate and gate stack structure disposed over the substrate, in which the gate stack structure includes a gate oxide layer, a ferroelectric layer, and a conductive layer. The gate oxide layer is disposed over the substrate; the ferroelectric layer is disposed over the gate oxide layer, wherein the ferroelectric layer has a negative capacitance effect; and the first conductive layer, disposed over the ferroelectric layer. A method of adjusting a threshold voltage of a transistor in the SRAM is also introduced.
