摘要： A plurality of non-volatile storage elements on a common active layer are offset from neighbor non-volatile storage elements. This offsetting of non-volatile storage elements helps reduce interference from neighbor non-volatile storage elements. A method of manufacture is also described for fabricating the offset non-volatile storage elements.

摘要： Unselected groups of non-volatile storage elements are boosted during programming to reduce or eliminate program disturb for targeted, but unselected memory cells connected to a selected word line. Prior to applying a program voltage to the selected word line and boosting the unselected groups, the unselected groups are pre-charged to further reduce or eliminate program disturb by providing a larger boosted potential for the unselected groups. During pre-charging, one or more pre-charge enable signals are provided at different voltages for particular non-volatile storage elements.

摘要： To program one or more non-volatile storage elements, a set of programming pulses are applied to at least one selected non-volatile storage element and one or more particular unselected non-volatile storage elements, for example, via a common word line. A boosting voltage is applied to other unselected non-volatile storage elements during the programming process in order to boost the channels of the unselected non-volatile storage elements so that programming will be inhibited. Each of the programming pulses has a first intermediate magnitude, a second intermediate magnitude and a third magnitude. In one embodiment, the first intermediate magnitude is similar to or the same as the boosting voltage. The second intermediate magnitude is greater than the first intermediate magnitude, but less then the third magnitude. Such an arrangement can reduce the effects of program disturb.
