Abstract

In an aspect, a semiconductor memory cell comprises gate structures separated by source or drain (S/D) structures, a frontside (FS) inter-layer dielectric (FS-ILD) layer above the gate and S/D structures, FS metal zero (FM0) interconnects above the FS-ILD layer, a backside (BS) inter-layer dielectric (BS-ILD) layer below the gate and S/D structures, BS metal zero (BM0) interconnects below the BS-ILD layer, at least one FS S/D contact (FSDC) electrically connecting an FM0 interconnect to a top surface of an S/D structure, and at least one BS S/D contact (BSDC) electrically connecting a BM0 interconnect to a bottom surface of an S/D structure. The semiconductor memory cell comprises NFETs and PFETs to form a cross-coupled inverter pair. For each inverter in the pair, one of VDD and VSS are provided by an FSDC and the other of VDD and VSS is provided by a BSDC.
