Claim 7:
8. A 3D memory device, the device comprising:
a first structure comprising a plurality of memory cells,
wherein each memory cell of said plurality of memory cells comprises at least one memory transistor,
wherein each of said at least one memory transistor comprises a source, a drain, and a channel;

a plurality of memory-line pillars,
wherein each memory-line pillar of said plurality of memory-line pillars is directly connected to a plurality of said source or said drain,
wherein said plurality of memory-line pillars are vertically oriented, and
wherein said at least one memory transistor is self-aligned to an overlaying another said at least one memory transistor, both being processed following a same lithography step; and

a control level comprising a memory controller circuit,
wherein said memory controller circuit comprises a row buffer,
wherein said control level is bonded to said first structure, and
wherein said bonded comprises hybrid bonding.
