Abstract:
Semiconductor device, memory arrays, and methods of forming a memory cell include or utilize one or more memory cells. The memory cell(s) include a first nanosheet transistor located on top of a substrate and connected to a first terminal, a second nanosheet transistor located on top of the first nanosheet transistor and connected in parallel to the first nanosheet transistor and connected to a second terminal, where the first and second nanosheet transistors share a common floating gate and a common output terminal, and an access transistor connected in series to the common output terminal and a low voltage terminal, the access transistor configured to trigger hot-carrier injection to the common floating gate to change a voltage of the common floating gate.
