1. A memory comprising:
- a first memory structure comprising;
a first conductive region;
a first conductive tub;
a second conductive tub;
a first memory storage element disposed between the first conductive region and the first conductive tub;
a first control element disposed between the first conductive tub and the second conductive tub; and
a first conductive via disposed in the second conductive tub; and
a second memory structure comprising;
a second conductive region;
a third conductive tub;
a fourth conductive tub;
a second memory storage element disposed between the second conductive region and the third conductive tub;
a second control element disposed between the third conductive tub and the fourth conductive tub; and
a second conductive via disposed in the fourth conductive tub and in contact with the first conductive region, wherein the first memory structure is vertically adjacent the second memory structure.
