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： Hole annealing methods are described after erasure of nitride storage memory cells for compensating trapped holes to minimize the holes from detrapping in order to reduce the amount of threshold voltage from drifting significantly higher. A soft hot electron program is used to selected nitride storage memory cells that have been detected to have a threshold voltage that is higher than a presetting threshold voltage (EV) minus a wordline delta X. The effect of the soft electron program neutralizes the excess holes introduced by erasure of nitride storage memory cells that decreases the amount of threshold voltage from drifting higher. In one embodiment, a hole annealing method describes a soft hot electron programming to nitride storage memory cells in a block of nitride memory array that have been determined to have a threshold voltage higher than the presetting threshold voltage minus the wordline delta X.

摘要： Method for soft-programming at least one floating gate memory cell in at least one page of a persistent memory device by converging the low threshold voltages of the several cells of the page within an optimal range, and apparatus implementing the method. The methodology of the present invention teaches connecting the individual drains of the several memory cells of the device of a given page, or block, to a voltage limited constant current circuitry component. The methodology applies a first positive voltage to the word line of the page and a second positive voltage to the common source in a fixed time period to converge the pages low threshold voltage distribution. The methodology is capable of implementation on either the source or drain side of the memory array.

摘要： A method for soft programming memory cells and floating gate memory device. During soft programming, a gate voltage is supplied to the control gate, a drain voltage it supplied to the drain, a well voltage is supplied to the well, and an active current limiter is coupled to the source. A circuit for soft programming supplies a gate voltage to the control gate, couples a constant current source to the drain, supplies a well voltage to the well, and supplies a source voltage to the source. The gate voltage may be approximately 2 V, the drain voltage may be approximately 4 V, and the well voltage may be approximately -2 V. According to another embodiment of the invention, the gate voltage is approximately 2 V lower than the drain voltage, and the well voltage is approximately 4 V lower than the gate voltage.
