    摘要: A three-dimensional memory cell, suitable for electrically erasable programmable read only memories (EEPROMS), which has direct-write cell capability is disclosed. The memory cell is utilized in the fabrication of non-volatile, direct-write EEPROM arrays with high integration density. A typical EEPROM array includes a plurality of elongated shallow trenches formed in a semiconductor substrate. Multiple direct-write EEPROM cells are disposed within each elongated trench such that each EEPROM cell shares a recall gate and a program gate with another cell in the same trench. Preferably, a silicon rich dielectric (such as silicon rich oxide) disposed between each floating gate and its associated programming and recall gates. Both common source diffusion and isolated source diffusion embodiments are disclosed. Further, various fabrication methods for the direct-write EEPROM arrays presented are described.

    摘要: Juxtaposing, on a common p-type substrate, an array of field effect transistor memory cells each including a random access memory dynamic RAM device comprising a floating gate portion and a storage node, and each including also a non-volatile unit comprising a double electron injector structure (DEIS) adjacent the floating gate portion, but remote from the storage node, provides a simple, low current dynamic random access memory array with non-volatile restart capability in case of power interruption.The non-volatile unit in each memory cell shares the control gate and substrate in common with the dynamic RAM device and thus shares access to the floating gate but is remote from the storage node. Situated between the floating gate and the substrate is a silicon-rich DEIS stack. During normal operation, the device functions as a dynamic RAM device. When non-volatile storage is required, electrons are written into the floating gate by raising the voltage on the control gate. This injects electrons into an insulating layer in the DEIS; the electrons flow to the floating gate where they are stored indefinitely. Subsequent write and erase operations are carried out by applying an appropriately polarized voltage pulse to the control gate electrode, moving electrons with respect to the floating gate portion of the RAM device.

    摘要: A memory system is provided for charging and discharging small cells each of which has only three terminals with a charge injector controlled by a low single polarity voltage. Each of the cells includes a transistor having a current carrying electrode and a floating gate, with a control gate arranged so that a first capacitor is serially connected with a second capacitor between the current carrying electrode and the control gate, with one of the capacitors having a substantially larger capacitance than that of the other capacitor and with the other capacitor including a charge injector. The common point between the first and second capacitors is connected to the floating gate. The charge injector may include a single graded or stepped composition region or two such regions disposed near opposite faces or plates of the other capacitor, or more particularly the injector may include silicon rich regions near one or both faces of a layer of silicon dioxide.

    摘要: A nonvolatile memory device can be manufactured without adding any major modification to a structure and component elements of a conventional MOS type silicon device, and is realized without deteriorating an electrical characteristic of an insulating-film/semiconductor interface and on the basis of a new operational principle. The nonvolatile memory device 10 is a capacitor configured by a metal electrode 16, two kinds of insulating films 13 and 15, and an interface structure of an insulating film 12/semiconductor 11, and has a MIS structure of providing a monolayer-level O-M1-O layer 14 to an insulating-film 13/semiconductor 15 interface. The nonvolatile memory device 10 realizes a nonvolatile information storage operation by changing strength or polarities of interface dipoles induced near the O-M1-O layer 14 through electrical stimulation applied from a gate electrode.
