Abstract
A semiconductor device including a substrate, a first layer over the substrate, and a second layer over the first layer. The first layer including a first fin structure, a first gate structure that overlaps the first fin structure to form a first pass-gate transistor, and a second gate structure that is separate from the first gate structure and that overlaps the first fin structure to form a first pull-down transistor. The second layer including a third gate structure disposed over the second gate structure and connected to the second gate structure, a first semiconductor oxide structure disposed on the third gate structure, and a first drain/source region and a second drain/source region disposed on the first semiconductor oxide structure, wherein the third gate structure, the first semiconductor oxide structure, the first drain/source region, and the second drain/source region constitute a first pull-up transistor.
