Abstract: A manufacturing method of semiconductor device is provided. In the manufacturing method, a tunneling dielectric layer, floating gates on the tunneling dielectric layer, an ONO layer on the floating gates, and control gates on the ONO layer are formed. During the formation of the floating gates and the control gates, reactive-ion etching (R.I.E.) is not used at all, and thus damage to the floating and control gates from high-density plasma is prevented, such as charge trap in the floating gates may be significantly reduced to improve the reliability of data storage.
