A shallow bipolar junction transistor comprising a high voltage n+ well implanted into a semiconductor substrate. The shallow bipolar junction transistor further comprises a bit line n+ implant (BNI) above the high voltage n+ well and an oxide nitride (ONO) layer above the high voltage n+ well. A portion of the ONO layer isolates the BNI from a shallow trench isolation (STI) region.

A method and manufacture for memory device fabrication is provided. Spacer formation and junction formation is performed on both: a memory cell region in a core section of a memory device in fabrication, and a high-voltage device region in a periphery section of the memory device in fabrication. The spacer formation and junction formation on both the memory cell region and the high-voltage device region includes performing a rapid thermal anneal. After performing the spacer formation and junction formation on both the memory cell region and the high-voltage device region, spacer formation and junction formation is performed on a low-voltage device region in the periphery section.

According to one exemplary embodiment, a method for fabricating a memory array includes forming a number of trenches in a substrate, where the trenches determine a number of wordline regions in the substrate, where each of the wordline regions is situated between two adjacent trenches, and where each of the wordline regions have a wordline region width. The memory array can be a flash memory array. The method further includes forming a number of bitlines in the substrate, where the bitlines are situated perpendicular to the trenches. The method further includes forming a dielectric region in each of the trenches. The method further includes forming a dielectric stack over the bitlines, wordline regions, and trenches. The method further includes forming a number of wordlines, where each wordline is situated over one of the wordline regions. The wordline region width determines an active wordline width of each of the wordlines.
