Bits are stored in an array with multiple capacitors sharing a single access transistor and a common plate coupled to the transistor. A single common select transistor accesses information stored in an array of capacitors, above and below the transistor and sharing a common plate. The common plate may be vertical and encircled by each of the other plates. The capacitors may be ferroelectric capacitors. In an integrated circuit system, the array may be coupled to a power supply and a cooling structure.

Methods and apparatuses for a cross-point memory array and related fabrication techniques are described. The fabrication techniques described herein may facilitate concurrently building two or more decks of memory cells disposed in a cross-point architecture. Each deck of memory cells may include a plurality of first access lines (e.g., word lines), a plurality of second access lines (e.g., bit lines), and a memory component at each topological intersection of a first access line and a second access line. The fabrication technique may use a pattern of vias formed at a top layer of a composite stack, which may facilitate building a 3D memory array within the composite stack while using a reduced number of processing steps. The fabrication techniques may also be suitable for forming a socket region where the 3D memory array may be coupled with other components of a memory device.
