Integrated Circuit with a Transistor Structure Element

An integrated semiconductor memory includes at least one memory cell having at least one transistor which forms an inversion channel in the switched-on state. The transistor comprises a structure element having a first source/drain region, a second source/drain region, and a region arranged between the first and the second source/drain region. The structure element is insulated from a semiconductor substrate by an insulation layer, a gate dielectric is arranged on the structure element, and a word line is arranged on the gate dielectric.
