    摘要: A split-gate EEPROM transistor includes a channel region (22) formed in a vertically disposed semiconductor body (58) and residing intermediate to a drain region (26) and a source region (24). A select gate electrode (28) is horizontally disposed on a semiconductor substrate (20). A floating gate electrode (30) resides adjacent to the channel region (22) and overlies the select gate electrode (28). A control gate electrode (32) resides adjacent to the control gate electrode (30) and also overlies the select gate electrode (28). In operation, the select gate electrode (28) regulates the flow of electrical charge from the source region (24) into the channel region (22), and provides a field plate electrical isolation for adjacent memory cells in an EEPROM array.
