A nonvolatile memory cell, memory cell arrangement, and method for production of a nonvolatile memory cell is disclosed. The nonvolatile memory cell includes a vertical field-effect transistor (FET). The FET contains a nanoelement arranged as a channel region and an electrically insulating layer.

Semiconductor memory having memory cells, each including first and second conductively-doped contact regions and a channel region arranged between the latter, formed in a web-like rib made of semiconductor material and arranged one behind the other in this sequence in the longitudinal direction of the rib. The rib has an essentially rectangular shape with an upper side of the rib and rib side faces lying opposite. A memory layer is configured for programming the memory cell, arranged on the upper side of the rib spaced apart by a first insulator layer, and projects in the normal direction of the one rib side face over one of the rib side faces so that the one rib side face and the upper side of the rib form an edge for injecting charge carriers from the channel region into the memory layer. A gate electrode is spaced apart from the one rib side face by a second insulator layer and from the memory layer by a third insulator layer, electrically insulated from the channel region, and configured to control its electrical conductivity.

The invention relates to a semiconductor memory having a multiplicity of memory cells and a method for forming the memory cells. The semiconductor memory generally includes a semiconductor layer arranged on a substrate surface that includes a normally positioned step between a deeper region and a higher region. The semiconductor memory further includes doped contact regions, channel regions, a trapping layer arranged on a gate oxide layer, and at least one gate electrode. The method for forming the memory cells includes patterning a semiconductor layer to form a deeper semiconductor region and a higher semiconductor region having a step positioned between the regions. The method further includes forming a first oxide layer and a trapping layer, and then removing portions of the trapping layer and the first oxide layer and applying a second oxide layer at least regions of a doped region, the trapping layer, and the step area, and applying a gate electrode to the second oxide layer and doping, at least in regions, of the deeper semiconductor region and the higher semiconductor region to form a deeper contact region and a higher contact region.

The invention relates to a semiconductor memory having a multiplicity of memory cells, each of the memory cells having N (e.g., four) vertical memory transistors with trapping layers. Higher contact regions are formed in higher semiconductor regions extending obliquely with respect to the rows and columns of the cell array, the gate electrode generally being led to the step side areas of the higher semiconductor region. A storage density of 1-2F2 per bit can thus be achieved.
