1. A method of making a semiconductor device, the method comprising:
providing a first wafer comprising a first semiconductor layer and a first insulating layer on the first semiconductor layer;
providing a second wafer comprising a second insulating layer, a layer of gate material on the second insulating layer, a first storage layer on the layer of gate material, and a semiconductor structure on the first storage layer;
bonding the first insulating layer to the second insulating layer;
cleaving away a first portion of the semiconductor structure to leave a layer of the semiconductor structure after the bonding;
forming a second storage layer over the layer of the semiconductor structure; and
forming a top gate over the second storage layer, wherein the first and second storage layers comprise nanocrystals.
