A method for producing a 3D semiconductor device including: providing a first level, the first level including a first single crystal layer; forming first alignment marks and control circuits in and/or on the first level, where the control circuits include first single crystal transistors and at least two interconnection metal layers; forming at least one second level disposed above the control circuits; performing a first etch step into the second level; forming at least one third level disposed on top of the second level; performing additional processing steps to form first memory cells within the second level and second memory cells within the third level, where each of the first memory cells include at least one second transistor, where each of the second memory cells include at least one third transistor, and where the additional processing steps include depositing a gate electrode simultaneously for the second and third transistors.
