A double gate transistor on a semiconductor substrate (2) includes a first diffusion region (S2), a second diffusion region (S3), and a double gate (FG, CG). The first and second diffusion regions (S2, S3) are arranged in the substrate spaced by a channel region (CR). The double gate includes a first gate electrode (FG) and a second gate electrode (CG). The first gate electrode is separated from the second gate electrode by an interpoly dielectric layer (IPD). The first gate electrode is arranged above the channel region and is separated from the channel region by a gate oxide layer (G). The second gate electrode is shaped as a central body. The interpoly dielectric layer is arranged as a conduit-shaped layer surrounding an external surface (A1) of the body of the second gate electrode. The interpoly dielectric layer is surrounded by the first gate electrode.

摘要:
A nonvolatile semiconductor memory device which is superior in writing property and charge holding property, including a semiconductor substrate in which a channel formation region is formed between a pair of impurity regions, and a first insulating layer, a floating gate, a second insulating layer, and a control gate over the semiconductor substrate. The floating gate includes at least two layers. It is preferable that a band gap of a first layer included in the floating gate, which is in contact with the first insulating layer, be smaller than that of the semiconductor substrate. For example, it is preferable that the band gap of the semiconductor material for forming the floating gate be smaller than that of the channel formation region in the semiconductor substrate by 0.1 eV or more. This is because, by lowering the bottom energy level of a conduction band of the floating gate electrode than that of the channel formation region in the semiconductor substrate, a carrier injecting property and a charge holding property are improved.

The second gate electrode (140) is partially located in a trench while the MOS transistor is adjacent to the flange of said trench. The first gate electrode is located outside the trench and has a tip (90, 100) at the edge of said trench intended for programmation using a reduced current flow. This memory cell can be manufactured according to an automatic adjustment method so as to obtain overall dimensions of 6 F2.
