摘要: A memory device includes a semiconductor substrate having a cell region and a peripheral region surrounding the cell region and a pair of control gate stacks on the cell region. Each of the control gate stacks includes a storage layer and a control gate on the storage layer. The memory device includes at least one high-κ metal gate stack disposed on the substrate. The high-κ metal gate stack has a metal gate and a high-κ dielectric film wrapping around the metal gate, and a top surface of the control gate is lower than a top surface of the metal gate.

摘要: A memory unit includes a substrate and a floating gate memory cell. The floating gate memory cell includes an erase gate structure disposed on the substrate, floating gate structures select gates, a common source and drains. The common source is disposed in the substrate, and the erase gate structure is disposed on the common source. The floating gate structures protrude from recesses of the substrate at two opposite sides of the erase gate structure. A method for controlling the memory unit includes applying an erase gate programming voltage on the erase gate structure, applying a control gate programming voltage on the common source, applying a bit line programming voltage on the drains, and applying word line programming voltage on the select gates, in which the control gate programming voltage is greater than the erase gate programming voltage.

摘要: A non-volatile memory (NVM) cell includes a semiconductor wire including a select gate portion and a control gate portion. The NVM cell includes a select transistor formed with the select gate portion and a control transistor formed with the control gate portion. The select transistor includes a gate dielectric layer disposed around the select gate portion and a select gate electrode disposed on the gate dielectric layer. The control transistor includes a stacked dielectric layer disposed around the control gate portion, a gate dielectric layer disposed on the stacked dielectric layer and a control gate electrode disposed on the gate dielectric layer. The stacked dielectric layer includes a first silicon oxide layer disposed on the control gate portion, a charge trapping layer disposed on the first silicon oxide, and a second silicon oxide layer disposed on the charge trapping layer.
