Abstract
A device includes a memory layer over a substrate; a first source/drain structure and a second source/drain structure on the memory layer, wherein the first source/drain structure and the second source drain structure each include a first source/drain layer on the memory layer; a second source/drain layer on the first source/drain layer, wherein the second source/drain layer is different from the first source/drain layer; and a metal layer on the second source/drain layer; and a channel region extending on the memory layer from the first source/drain layer of the first source/drain structure to the first source/drain layer of the second source/drain structure.
