    Abstract: A 3D semiconductor device including: a first level with first transistors, single crystal layer overlaid by at least one first metal layer which includes interconnects between the first transistors forming first control circuits with a sense amplifier; the first metal-layer(s) overlaid by a second metal-layer which is overlaid by a second level which includes first memory cells which include second transistors with a metal gate, overlaid by a third level which includes second memory cells which include third transistors and are partially disposed atop the control circuits, which control data written to second memory cells; a fourth metal-layer overlaying a third metal-layer which overlays the third level; where third transistor gate locations are aligned to second transistor gate locations within less than 100 nm, the average thickness of fourth metal-layer is at least twice the average thickness of second metal-layer; the fourth metal-layer includes a global power distribution grid.
