摘要:
A method of processing a semiconductor structure may include preparing a vertical channel memory structure for filling of a physical isolation trench formed therein. The physical isolation trench may be formed between active structures adjacent to each other and extending in a first direction. The active structures may have channels adjacent to sides of the active structures that are opposite to sides of the active structures that are adjacent to the physical isolation trench. The method may further include filling the physical isolation trench in connection with application of a multi-dielectric layer (ex. an oxide-nitride-oxide (ONO) layer), a polysilicon liner and/or an oxide film. A corresponding apparatus and method for integrating such a structure with a planar periphery are also provided.

A method of operating a memory cell is provided. The memory cell has first, second, third and fourth storage regions in a charge-storage layer between a substrate and a word line. The first and second storage regions are respectively adjacent to lower and upper portions at one side of the protruding part of the substrate, and the third and fourth storage regions are respectively adjacent to lower and upper portions at the other side of the same. The second and third storage regions are regarded as a top storage region. When the top storage region is programmed, a first positive voltage is applied to the word line, a second positive voltage is applied to a top bit line in a top portion of the protruding part, and a bottom voltage is applied to first and second bottom bit lines in the substrate beside the protruding part respectively.
