Patent ID: 7375401

Claim:
A semiconductor device having at least a static random access memory, the static random access memory comprising: a word line over a substrate; a first bit line intersecting perpendicularly to the word line, over the substrate; a first driver thin film transistor and a second driver thin film transistor over the substrate; and a first load element and a second load element over the substrate, wherein a gate electrode of the first driver thin film transistor is connected to a source or drain region of the second driver thin film transistor and the second load element, wherein a gate electrode of the second driver thin film transistor is connected to a source or drain region of the first driver thin film transistor and the first load element, and electrically connected to the first bit line, wherein each of the first and second driver thin film transistors comprises: a semiconductor film comprising a source region, a drain region, and a channel region between the source and drain regions; a gate electrode adjacent to the channel region with a gate insulating film interposed therebetween, and wherein the source and drain regions comprise metal silicide.
