Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A memory device includes pages arranged in a column direction and each constituted by memory cells arranged in a row direction in plan view on a substrate, each memory cell includes a semiconductor body, first and second impurity regions, and first and second gate conductor layers, and in a page read operation, a first refresh operation of increasing by an impact ionization phenomenon, the number of positive holes in the semiconductor body of a memory cell for which page writing has been performed and a second refresh operation of decreasing the number of positive holes in the semiconductor body of a memory cell for which page writing has not been performed are performed and a third refresh operation for a memory cell, in a page, in which the logical “1” data is stored is performed by using latch data in a sense amplifier circuit.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A semiconductor-element-including memory device that is a memory device in which in plan view on a substrate, a plurality of pages are arranged in a column direction, each of the pages being constituted by a plurality of memory cells arranged in a row direction, each of the memory cells included in each of the pages comprising: a semiconductor body that stands on the substrate in a vertical direction or that extends along the substrate in a horizontal d…
