Programmable memory device

Abstract

The present application provides a programmable memory device. The programmable memory device includes: an access transistor, comprising an active region formed in a substrate and a gate structure formed on the substrate, wherein the active region has a linear top view shape, the gate structure has a first portion and a second portion, the first portion is intersected with a section of the active region away from end portions of the active region, and the second portion is laterally spaced apart from the active region; and a capacitor, using a portion of the active region as a terminal, and further comprising an electrode and a dielectric layer, wherein the electrode is disposed on the portion of the active region and spaced apart from the gate structure, and at least a portion of the dielectric layer is sandwiched between the electrode and the portion of the active region
