    摘要: A non-volatile memory cell has a single crystalline substrate of a first conductivity type with a top surface. A first region of a second conductivity type is in the substrate along the top surface. A second region of the second conductivity type is in the substrate along the top surface, spaced apart from the first region. A channel region is the first region and the second region. A word line gate is positioned over a first portion of the channel region, immediately adjacent to the first region. The word line gate is spaced apart from the channel region by a first insulating layer. A floating gate is positioned over another portion of the channel region. The floating gate has a lower surface separated from the channel region by a second insulating layer, and an upper surface opposite the lower surface. The floating gate has a first side wall adjacent to but separated from the word line gate; and a second side wall opposite the first side wall. The second side wall and the upper surface form a sharp edge, with the second side wall greater in length than the first side wall. The upper surface slopes upward from the first side wall to the second side wall. A coupling gate is positioned over the upper surface of the floating gate and is insulated therefrom by a third insulating layer. An erase gate is positioned adjacent to the second side wall of the floating gate. The erase gate is positioned over the second region and insulated therefrom.

    摘要: A method for preparing semiconductor nanocrystals comprises reacting cation precursors and anion precursors in a reaction mixture including one or more acids, one or more phenol compounds, and a solvent to produce semiconductor nanocrystals having a predetermined composition. A method for forming a coating on at least a portion of a population of semiconductor nanocrystals is also disclosed. The method comprises forming a first mixture including a population of semiconductor nanocrystals, one or more amine compounds, and a first solvent; adding cation precursors and anion precursors to the first mixture at a temperature sufficient for growing a semiconductor material on at least a portion of an outer surface of at least a portion of the population of semiconductor nanocrystals; and initiating addition of one or more acids to the first mixture after addition of the cation and anion precursors is initiated. Semiconductor nanocrystals and populations thereof are also disclosed.
