Abstract
Examples of an integrated circuit with a contacting gate structure and a method for forming the integrated circuit are provided herein. In some examples, an integrated circuit device includes a memory cell that includes a plurality of fins and a gate extending over a first fin of the plurality of fins and a second fin of the plurality of fins. The gate includes a gate electrode that physically contacts the first fin and a gate dielectric disposed between the gate electrode and the second fin. In some such examples, the first fin includes a source/drain region and a doped region that physically contacts the gate electrode.
