    摘要: A non-volatile memory device having a hidden cell located separate from data storage cells, and a method of effectively managing an erase count of the non-volatile memory device. The method includes preparing the non-volatile memory device that includes a hidden cell located separate from data storage cells and is not accessible to users of the data storage cells, and increasing an erase count stored in an erase count storing region of the hidden cell corresponding to at least one erased data storage cell when the at least one data storage cell is erased.

    摘要: Methods for erasing an integrated circuit memory device having a cell array region that includes a main cell array region, a first dummy cell array region on a first side of the main cell array region and a second dummy cell array region on a second side of the main cell array region are provided. A first erasure voltage is applied to a plurality of main control gate electrodes in the main cell array region. The plurality of main control gate electrodes include a first outermost main control gate electrode adjacent to the first dummy cell array region and a second outermost main control gate electrode adjacent to the second dummy cell array region. A second erasure voltage is applied to an integrated circuit substrate in the main cell array region. The second erasure voltage is greater than the first erasure voltage. A third erasure voltage is applied to a first inner dummy control gate electrode adjacent to the first outermost main control gate electrode and a second inner dummy control gate electrode adjacent to the second outermost main control gate electrode. The third erasure voltage is less than the second erasure voltage. Related devices are also provided.

    摘要: Intermediate structures are provided that are formed during the manufacture of a memory device. These structures include first and second spaced apart gate patterns on a semiconductor substrate. A source/drain region is provided in the semiconductor substrate between the first and second gate patterns. An etch stop layer is provided on first and second sidewalls of the first gate pattern. The first and second sidewalls face each other to define a gap region between the etch stop layer on the first sidewall and the etch stop layer on the second sidewall. A dielectric layer is provided in the gap region. Finally, a preliminary contact hole is provided in the dielectric layer.
