    摘要: The present invention discloses a charge trap flash memory cell with multi-doped layers at the active region, a memory array using of the memory cell, and an operating method of the same. The charge trap memory cell structure of the present invention is characterized by forming multi-doped layers at the active region appropriately, and it is a difference from the conventional art. The present invention induces electrons to band-to-band tunnel at the PN junction with the source/drain region by the multi-doped layers, and accelerates the electrons at the reverse bias to generate an avalanche phenomenon. Therefore, the method for operating a memory array of the present invention comprises programming by injecting holes which are generated by the avalanche phenomenon into multi-dielectric layers of each memory cells, and erasing by injecting electrons through an F-N tunneling from channels into the multi-dielectric layers of each memory cells.

A trench may then be formed extending through the tunnel insulating layer and the charge-trap layer and into the semiconductor substrate so that portions of the charge-trap layer and the tunnel insulating layers remain on opposite sides of the trench. A device isolation layer may be formed in the trench, and a blocking insulating layer may be formed on the device isolation layer and on remaining portions of the charge-trap layer. A gate electrode may be formed on the blocking insulating layer, and the blocking insulating layer and remaining portions of the charge-trap layer may be patterned to provide a blocking insulating pattern and a charge-trap pattern between the gate electrode and the semiconductor substrate.
