    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure are generally directed to non-volatile memory (NVM) and techniques for operating and fabricating NVM. Certain aspects provide a memory cell for implementing NVM. The memory cell generally includes a first semiconductor region, a second semiconductor region, and a third semiconductor region, the second semiconductor region being disposed between and having a different doping type than the first and third semiconductor regions. The memory cell also includes a fourth semiconductor region disposed adjacent to and having the same doping type as the third semiconductor region, a first front gate region disposed adjacent to the second semiconductor region, and a first floating front gate region disposed adjacent to the third semiconductor region. In certain aspects, the memory cell includes a back gate region, wherein the second semiconductor region is between the first front gate region and at least a portion of the back gate region.
