Abstract

Active areas (24A,24B) of a Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) formed on a semiconductor substrate are defined by buried bit lines (BL1, BL2, BL3) on two sides and by conductors (20) separated from the semiconductor substrate by electrically insulating layers (22) on two other sides. The conductors are electrically biased during operation of the DRAM to cause portions of the semiconductor substrate therebelow to increase in majority carrier concentration and thus to inhibit inversion therof, commonly known as field plate insulation. Each buried bit line is formed in a trench (14) in the semiconductor substrate. Each trench houses a separate bit line and is lined with an electrical insulator (16) and has a conductor (18A) in a bottom portion thereof. Common drain regions (23A) shared by two transistors are coupled to conductors (18A) by means of a conductor (32).
