Abstract
An SRAM device uses a four-terminal double gate field effect transistor as a selection transistor, wherein the four-terminal double gate field effect transistor comprises a gate which drives the transistor and a gate which controls a threshold voltage, which are electrically separated from each other, on both surfaces of a standing semiconductor thin plate, and wherein a voltage used to reduce a threshold voltage is input to the gate which controls the threshold voltage of the selection transistor during a writing operation than during a reading operation. The SRAM device which can increase both the read and write margins is provided.
