A DRAM one device cell and an associated precharge circuit are integrated together in a novel structure having an area of only four square features. The structure also provides physical and electrical separation between adjacent cells along a direction parallel to the DRAM word lines. The DRAM bit line length per bit is reduced by 50% relative to a conventional planar integrated structure disclosed elsewhere. As a result, bit line capacitance is also substantially reduced, and the effectiveness of a precharge technique for reduction of DRAM power consumption is enhanced by the dense novel structure.
