Abstract:
An apparatus includes a multiple time programmable (MTP) memory device. The MTP memory device includes a metal gate, a substrate material, and an oxide structure between the metal gate and the substrate material. The oxide structure includes a hafnium oxide layer and a silicon dioxide layer. The hafnium oxide layer is in contact with the metal gate and in contact with the silicon dioxide layer. The silicon dioxide layer is in contact with the substrate material. The MTP device includes a transistor, and a non-volatile state of the MTP memory device is based on a threshold voltage of the transistor.
