Abstract
A 3D device, the device including: a first stratum of first bit-cell memory arrays; a second stratum of second bit-cell memory arrays; and a third stratum, where the second stratum overlays the first stratum, where the third stratum overlays the second stratum, where the third stratum includes a plurality of word-line decoders to control the first bit-cell memory arrays and the second bit-cell memory arrays.

1-18. (canceled)
A method to construct a 3D system, the method comprising:
- providing a base wafer;
- and then
- transferring a first memory wafer on top of said base wafer;
- and then
- thinning said first memory wafer;
- and then
- transferring a second memory wafer on top;
- and then
- thinning said second memory wafer;
- and
- transferring a memory control on top;
- and then
- thinning said memory control,
- wherein said first memory wafer comprises a cut-layer, and
- wherein said thinning comprises using said cut-layer to control the thickness of said first memory wafer.

A 3D device, the device comprising:
- a first stratum comprising a first bit-cell array, said first bit-cell array comprises a hundred independent first rows;
- a second stratum comprising a second bit-cell array, said second bit-cell array comprises a hundred independent second rows,
- wherein said second stratum overlays said first stratum;
- and
- at least one hundred vertical bit-lines each connected to a respective one hundred horizontal first bit-lines and one hundred horizontal second bit-lines,
