ABSTRACT:
Disclosed are various semiconductor devices having vertical-type MISFETs wherein the source and drain regions of the MISFETs are spaced from each other in a direction perpendicular to the main surface of the semiconductor substrate containing such MISFETs. In a specific embodiment, a plurality of such MISFETs can be arrayed in a substrate, to form a memory device, with a common gate electrode, buried in the substrate, being used for a plurality of the memory cells, such buried gate electrode constituting the word line for the memory cells, with the data line extending over the surface of the substrate. This structure provides for increased miniaturization, without decrease in channel width of the MISFET, and provides for a flatter device surface due to the buried combination gate electrode/word lines.
