摘要:
A method of forming an MOS transistor by forming a poly gate over and insulated from a substrate, forming a layer of protective insulation material on the poly gate, and then performing a first implant of dopant material into portions of the substrate adjacent the poly gate, wherein the layer of protective insulation material and the poly gate block most or all of the first implant from reaching a portion of the substrate underneath the poly gate. One or more spacers are then formed adjacent the poly gate, followed by a second implant of dopant material into portions of the substrate adjacent to the one or more spacers.

A stack gate structure for a non-volatile memory array has a semiconductor substrate having a plurality of substantially parallel spaced apart active regions, with each active region having an axis in a first direction. A first insulating material is between each stack gate structure in the second direction perpendicular to the first direction. Each stack gate structure has a second insulating material over the active region, a charge holding gate over the second insulating material, a third insulating material over the charge holding gate, and a first portion of a control gate over the third insulating material. A second portion of the control gate is over the first portion of the control gate and over the first insulating material adjacent thereto and extending in the second direction. A fourth insulating material is over the second portion of the control gate.

A method of forming a memory cell includes forming a conductive floating gate over the substrate, forming a conductive control gate over the floating gate, forming a conductive erase gate laterally to one side of the floating gate and forming a conductive select gate laterally to an opposite side of the one side of the floating gate. After the forming of the floating and select gates, the method includes implanting a dopant into a portion of a channel region underneath the select gate using an implant process that injects the dopant at an angle with respect to a surface of the substrate that is less than ninety degrees and greater than zero degrees.

A method of operating a memory cell that comprises first and second regions spaced apart in a substrate with a channel region therebetween, a floating gate disposed over the channel region and the first region, a control gate disposed over the channel region and laterally adjacent to the floating gate with a portion disposed over the floating gate, and a coupling gate disposed over the first region and laterally adjacent to the floating gate. A method of erasing the memory cell includes applying a positive voltage to the control gate and a negative voltage to the coupling gate. A method of reading the memory cell includes applying positive voltages to the control gate, to the coupling gate, and to one of the first and second regions.
