Abstract:
A layout structure for memory devices includes a plurality of first gate patterns, a plurality of first landing pad patterns, a plurality of dummy patterns, a plurality of second landing pad patterns, and a plurality of second gate patterns. The first landing pad patterns are parallel with each other and electrically connected to the first gate patterns. The dummy patterns and the first landing pad patterns are alternately arranged, and the second landing pad patterns are respectively positioned in between one first landing pad pattern and one dummy pattern. The second gate patterns are electrically connected to the second landing pad patterns.
Abstract:
A floating gate forming process includes the following steps. A substrate containing active areas isolated from each other by isolation structures protruding from the substrate is provided. A first conductive material is formed to conformally cover the active areas and the isolation structure. An etch back process is performed on the first conductive material to respectively form floating gates separated from each other in the active areas.
