Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for forming a static random access memory (SRAM) cell. In order to avoid constantly reducing operating voltage of the SRAM cell affecting the unit stability and noise jamming of the SRAM cell during read/write processes, the invention employs different thicknesses of gate oxide layers of an access transistor and a pull down transistor. Thereby, not only the &bgr; ratio is increased, but also the unit area is decreased.
