Original Abstract Submitted

methods, systems, and devices for transistor architectures in coupled semiconductor systems are described. a memory system may be formed from multiple semiconductor components (e.g., multiple dies, multiple wafers) that are coupled together, with different semiconductor components implementing different techniques for transistor formation. for example, a first die may include a memory array and first circuitry configured to access the memory array, and a second die coupled with the first die may include second circuitry configured to access the memory array. the first circuitry may include transistors formed in accordance with a first fabrication technique (e.g., to form a first type of transistors) and the second circuitry may include transistors formed in accordance with a second fabrication technique (e.g., to form a second type of transistors). the dies may be coupled in a manner that provides an electrical coupling between the first circuitry and the second circuitry.
