    Abstract: Semiconductor structure and methods of forming the same are provided. An exemplary method includes providing a substrate having a first region and a second region, forming an array of memory cells over the first region of the substrate, and forming a memory-level dielectric layer around the array of memory cells. Each of the memory cells includes, from bottom to top, a bottom electrode, a memory material layer stack, and a top electrode. The exemplary method also includes forming a metal line directly interfacing a respective row of top electrodes of the array of memory cells. The metal line also directly interfaces a top surface of the memory-level dielectric layer.

    Abstract: A semiconductor structure includes a plurality of memory cells stacked up along a first direction. Each of the memory cells include a memory stack, connecting lines, and insulating layers. The memory stack includes a first dielectric layer, a channel layer disposed on the first dielectric layer, a charge trapping layer disposed on the channel layer, a second dielectric layer disposed on the charge trapping layer, and a gate layer disposed in between the channel layer and the second dielectric layer. The connecting lines are extending along the first direction and covering side surfaces of the memory stack. The insulating layers are extending along the first direction, wherein the insulating layers are located aside the connecting lines and covering the side surfaces of the memory stack.
