    摘要： Systems and methods that facilitate improved programming memory cells in a nonvolatile memory (e.g., flash memory) are presented. An optimized voltage component can facilitate supplying respective voltages to a source, drain, and gate associated with a memory cell during operations, such as programming operations. The optimized voltage component can facilitate supplying a predetermined source bitline voltage to a memory cell during programming of the cell to facilitate reducing leakage currents associated with the bitlines, which can improve programming of the memory cell, and to facilitate reducing the programming current, which can result in power efficient programming and improved programming speed.

    摘要： A memory device comprised of a plurality of memory cells that can each include multiple charge storage elements in undercut regions that are formed under a tunneling barrier and adjacent to a gate oxide layer of each memory cell. The tunneling barrier can be formed from a high work function material, such as P+ polycrystalline silicon or a P-type metal, and/or a high-K material. The memory cell can reduce the likelihood of gate electron injection through the gate electrode and into the charge storage elements during a Fowler-Nordheim erase by employing such tunneling barrier. Systems and methods of fabricating memory devices having at least one such memory cell are provided.

    摘要： Methods are provided for fabricating a split charge storage node semiconductor memory device. In accordance with one embodiment the method comprises the steps of forming a gate insulator layer having a first physical thickness and a first effective oxide thickness on a semiconductor substrate and forming a control gate electrode having a first edge and a second edge overlying the gate insulator layer. The gate insulator layer is etched to form first and second undercut regions at the edges of the control gate electrode, the first and second undercut region each exposing a portion of the semiconductor substrate and an underside portion of the control gate electrode. First and second charge storage nodes are formed in the undercut regions, each of the charge storage nodes comprising an oxide-storage material-oxide structure having a physical thickness substantially equal to the first physical thickness and an effective oxide thickness less than the first effective oxide thickness.
