The process includes at least the following steps: growing or depositing a gate dielectric layer of the selection transistor and the cell; tunnel masking to define the tunnel area with a dedicated etching step for cleaning the semiconductor surface; growing the tunnel oxide; depositing and doping the first polysilicon layer poly1. The process further comprises the following steps: poly1 masking to fully define the floating gate of the cell, the poly1 being removed from the area of the selection transistor during this step; depositing or growing the interpoly dielectric and forming tunnel oxide and interpoly dielectric; depositing or growing the interpoly dielectric and forming the overall gate dielectric of the selection transistor, which will therefore consist of the stacked interpoly dielectric and gate dielectric as previously grown or deposited; matrix masking to only remove interpoly dielectric from the circuitry; depositing and doping a second polysilicon layer poly2; masking the second layer of polysilicon to define the control and selection gate; poly etching in the matrix as far down as the intermediate dielectric layer; poly etching in the circuitry the whole short-circuited poly1/poly2 stack.

    摘要: To increase the facing surface and thus the coupling between the floating gate and control gate regions of a memory cell, the floating gate and control gate regions have a width that is not constant in different section planes parallel to a longitudinal section plane extending through the source and drain regions of the cell. In particular, the width of the floating gate and control gate regions is smallest in the longitudinal section plane and increases linearly in successive parallel section planes moving away from the longitudinal section plane.

    摘要: A manufacturing process including: forming a first insulating region on top of an active area; forming a tunnel region at the side of the first insulating region; depositing and defining a semiconductor material layer using a floating gate mask to form a floating gate region. The floating gate mask has an opening with an internal delimiting side extending at a preset distant from a corresponding outer delimiting side of the mask, so that the floating gate region forms inner a hole, and the tunnel region is defined, as regards its length, by the floating gate ask alone. The hole is filled with a dielectric material layer. The surface of the floating gate region is planarized, and an insulating region of dielectric material is made. A control gate region and conductive regions in the active area are then formed.
