    摘要: A memory array comprises a semiconductor body having a plurality of trenches aligned generally in parallel. The trenches contain semiconductor material, such as doped amorphous silicon, and act as source/drain lines for the memory array. Insulating liners lie between the semiconductor material within the trenches and the semiconductor body. A plurality of word lines overlie the plurality of trenches and channel regions in the semiconductor body in an array of cross points. Charge trapping structures lie between the word lines and the channel regions at the cross points, providing an array of flash memory cells. The charge trapping structures comprise dielectric charge trapping structures adapted to be programmed and erased to store data. A method for manufacturing such devices includes patterning and forming the sources/drain lines with insulating liners prior to formation of the charge trapping structure over the channel regions.

    摘要: A method for simulating operation of a charge trapping memory cell which computes the amount of charge trapped by determining first tunneling current through the tunneling layer, determining second tunneling current out of the charge trapping layer to the gate, determining third tunneling current escaping from traps in the charge trapping layer and tunneling out to the gate, and integrating said tunneling currents over a time interval. A change in threshold voltage can be computed for a transistor including the charge trapping structure. The parameter set can include only physical parameters, including layer thickness, band offsets and dielectric constants.

    摘要: A method for manufacturing memory cells is provided. First, a substrate is provided, wherein a liner layer and a material layer have already been sequentially formed on the substrate. Thereafter, a patterned mask layer is formed on the substrate. Then, the patterned mask layer is trimmed. Subsequently, a portion of the material layer, a portion of the liner layer and a portion of the substrate are removed by using the patterned mask layer as a mask to define a plurality of fin-structures in the substrate. Afterward, the patterned mask layer is removed and a plurality of isolation structures among the fin structures is formed. The surface of the isolation structures is lower than that of the fin structures. Following that, charge trapping structures are formed on the substrate, covering the fin structures. Succeeding, a portion of the charge trapping structures is removed to expose the material layer. Then, the treatment process turns the material layer into a protection layer. Subsequently, a gate is formed on the substrate and straddles the protection layer, the charge trapping structures and the fin structure. Afterward, source/drain regions are formed in the fin-structure exposed by both sides of the gate.
