    Abstract: A non-volatile memory device includes a memory cell which stores one of first data and second data, and includes a first sub-memory cell connected to a first word line and a first bit line, and a second sub-memory cell connected to a second word line and a second bit line, a source line shared by the first sub-memory cell and the second sub-memory cell, and a sense amplifier connected to the first bit line and the second bit line which reads data stored in the memory cell. The sense amplifier receives a first current from the first bit line, receives a second current from the second bit line, and reads data stored in the memory cell by comparing magnitudes of the first current and the second current. The first sub-memory cell is programmed, and the second sub-memory cell is erased, in response to the memory cell storing the first data.

    Abstract: Provided is a semiconductor device. The semiconductor device includes a floating gate disposed on a substrate; a memory gate disposed on the floating gate; a first spacer disposed sidewalls of the floating gate and the memory gate, and an upper surface of the substrate; a second spacer disposed on the first spacer; a select high-k film disposed on a first portion of a sidewall of the first spacer between the substrate and the second spacer; and a select gate disposed on a second portion of the sidewall of the first spacer between the substrate and the second spacer. A width of a portion of the first spacer is reduced as a distance to the substrate decreases, and the portion of the first spacer is disposed between the substrate and the second spacer.
