A semiconductor memory device having STC cells wherein the major portions of active regions consisting of channel-forming portions are inclined at an angle of 45 degrees with respect to word lines and bit lines that meet at right angles with each other, thereby enabling the storage capacitor portions to be arranged very densely and a sufficiently large capacitance to be maintained with very small cell areas. Since the storage capacitor portions are formed even on the bit lines, the bit lines are shielded, so that the capacitance decreases between the bit lines and, hence, the memory array noise decreases. It is also possible to design the charge storage capacitor portion so that a part thereof is in the form of a wall substantially vertical to the substrate in order to increase the capacitance.

A semiconductor static random access memory having a high .alpha.-ray immunity and a high packing density is provided which is also capable of high-speed operation. A semiconductor memory device comprises static random access memory cells each including a flip-flop circuit. Storage nodes of each flip-flop circuit have respective pn-junctions formed at regions sandwiched between gate electrodes of first insulated gate field effect transistors and gate electrodes of second insulated gate field effect transistors, respectively. The pn-junction has an area smaller than that of a channel portion of the first or second insulated gate field effect transistor. The gate electrode of one of the two first insulated gate field effect transistors and the drain region of the other insulated gate field effect transistor, on one hand, and the drain region of the one insulated gate field effect transistor and the gate electrode of the other insulated gate field effect transistor, on the other hand, are electrically cross-coupled mutually through first and second electrically conductive films, respectively. Also, to increase packing density and enhance immunity to soft error, the gate electrodes of the first and second insulated gate field effect transistors extend substantially in parallel with one another and the channel regions of the first and second insulated gate field effect transistors extend substantially in parallel with one another.
