摘要:
Forming a gate stack of a non-volatile memory (NVM) over a substrate having an NVM region and non-NVM region which does not overlap the NVM region includes forming a select gate layer over the substrate in the NVM and non-NVM regions; simultaneously etching the select gate layer in the NVM and non-NVM regions; forming a charge storage layer over the substrate in the NVM and non-NVM regions; forming a control gate layer over the charge storage layer in the NVM and non-NVM regions; and simultaneously etching the charge storage layer in the NVM and the non-NVM regions. Etching the select gate layer in the NVM region results in a portion of the charge storage layer over a portion of the select gate layer and overlapping a sidewall of the select gate layer and results in a portion of the control gate layer over the portion of the charge storage layer.
