Abstract :
A process-inherent NAND2 device is presented for a three-dimensional CMOS integration with epitaxial lateral overgrowth and chemo-mechanical polishing. The required ´OR´ function of the two PMOS transistors is achieved by one silicon volume, which is controlled by a back gate and a conventional front gate. Almost symmetrical characteristics are measured for the front and the back gates.
