Abstract
A MOS transistor includes an upper source/drain region, a channel region, and a lower source/drain region that are stacked as layers one above the other and form a projection of a substrate. A gate dielectric adjoins a first lateral area of the projection. A gate electrode adjoins the gate dielectric. A conductive structure adjoins a second lateral area of the projection in the region of the channel region. The conductive structure adjoins the gate electrode.
