摘要:
In one aspect, a transistor comprises: a substrate body; a tunnel oxide layer on the body; a charge trapping layer on the tunnel oxide layer; a blocking layer on the charge trapping layer; a control gate on the blocking layer, the control gate having first and second sidewalls, the first and second sidewalls being spaced apart from each other by a first distance; and charge confinement features on the body, the charge confinement features being spaced apart from each other by a second distance that is greater than or substantially equal to the first distance, the charge confinement features suppressing or preventing migration of charge present in the charge trapping layer.
