    摘要: Disclosed is a non-volatile memory cell. The non-volatile memory cell includes a substrate having an active area. A bottom dielectric layer is disposed over the active area of the substrate which provides tunneling migration to the charge carriers towards the active area. A charge storage node is disposed above the bottom dielectric layer. Further, the non-volatile memory cell includes a plurality of top dielectric layers disposed above the charge storage node. Each of the plurality of top dielectric layers can be tuned with a set of attributes for reducing a leakage current through the plurality of top dielectric layers. Over the plurality of top dielectric layers, a control gate is disposed.

    摘要: Some embodiments include memory cells having vertically-stacked charge-trapping zones spaced from one another by dielectric material. The dielectric material may comprise high-k material. One or more of the charge-trapping zones may comprise metallic material. Such metallic material may be present as a plurality of discrete isolated islands, such as nanodots. Some embodiments include methods of forming memory cells in which two charge-trapping zones are formed over tunnel dielectric, with the zones being vertically displaced relative to one another, and with the zone closest to the tunnel dielectric having deeper traps than the other zone. Some embodiments include electronic systems comprising memory cells. Some embodiments include methods of programming memory cells having vertically-stacked charge-trapping zones.
