    摘要: The semiconductor memory device has a substrate with a main surface, on which parallel trenches are arranged. A memory layer is disposed at the sidewalls of the trenches, and gate electrodes are disposed in the trenches. Buried bitlines are formed as doped regions between neighboring trenches. The buried bitlines abut the sidewalls of the trenches and comprise upper surfaces, which are arranged at a specified distance from the bottom of the trenches. Source/drain regions are formed by sections of the buried bitlines.

    摘要: A memory device includes an array of memory cells that include a memory element having a non-reactive resistance whose magnitude is programmable to assume a high-resistance state or a low-resistance state. Sets of first and second lines provide access to the memory cells, wherein the memory element of each memory cell is coupled between one of the first lines and one of the second lines. A checking unit determines whether to invert data values to be stored in memory cells coupled to at least a section of respective ones of the first lines based on a number of memory cells that would be programmed in the high-resistance state or the low-resistance state as a result of the data values in order to reduce the number memory cells programmed in the low-resistance state and the resulting leakage current.

    摘要: Transistor bodies of semiconductor material located at a main surface of a semiconductor substrate between shallow trench isolations are provided with a rounded or curved upper surface. A floating gate electrode is arranged above said upper surface and electrically insulated from the semiconductor material by a tunnel dielectric having essentially the same tiny thickness throughout a primary tunnel area encompassing the area of curvature. The floating gate electrode may bridge the transistor body and is covered with a coupling dielectric provided for a control gate electrode, which forms part of a wordline.

    摘要: A memory cell array comprises a plurality of memory transistors arranged in a two-dimensional array, each memory transistor having two source/drain regions arranged in a first direction of the memory cell array with a channel substrate region therebetween, and a gate structure arranged above the channel substrate region. The source/drain regions and channel substrate regions are formed in a substrate arranged on an insulating layer, with the channel substrate regions of memory transistors adjacent each other in the first direction being separated from each other by respective source/drain regions extending down to the insulating layer. The source/drain regions and the channel substrate regions of memory transistors adjacent each other in a second direction of the memory cell array furthermore are isolated from each other by trenches filled with insulating material and formed in the substrate so as to extend down to the insulating layer.
