    摘要: A method of making a non-volatile memory (NVM) cell using a substrate having a top surface of silicon includes forming a select gate stack over the substrate. An oxide layer is grown on the top surface of the substrate. Nanocrystals of silicon are formed on the thermal oxide layer adjacent to a first side the select gate stack. The nanocrystals are partially oxidized to result in partially oxidized nanocrystals and further growing the thermal oxide layer. A control gate is formed over the partially oxidized nanocrystals. A first doped region is formed in the substrate adjacent to a first side of the control gate and a second doped region in the substrate adjacent to a second side of the select gate.
