Abstract
A memory device includes a first pull-down (PD) transistor, a second PD transistor, a first pass-gate (PG) transistor, and a second PG transistor arranged in a first direction and share a first active area, and a first pull-up (PU) transistor, a second PU transistor, a first dielectric structure, and a second dielectric structure arranged in the first direction and share a second active area. The first dielectric structure and a third gate structure of the first PG transistor extend in the second direction and are aligned with each other in the second direction. The second dielectric structure and a fourth gate structure of the second PG transistor extend in the second direction and are aligned with each other in the second direction.
