1. A dynamic random access memory cell having vertical channel transistor, comprising:

  • a semiconductor pillar disposed in a semiconductor substrate and forming an active region of a vertical channel transistor;

    a drain layer disposed at a bottom of the semiconductor pillar;

    an assisted gate disposed beside the drain layer and separated from the drain layer by a first gate dielectric layer;

    a control gate disposed beside the semiconductor pillar and separated from the active region by a second gate dielectric layer;

    a source layer disposed at a top of the semiconductor pillar; and

    a capacitor electrically connected to the source layer.
