Title: Innovations of Shanjen Pan

Introduction

Shanjen Pan is a prominent inventor based in Plano, TX (US). He has made significant contributions to the field of non-volatile memory technology. With a total of 14 patents to his name, his work has had a substantial impact on the industry.

Latest Patents

One of his latest patents is for an N-channel erasable programmable non-volatile memory. In this invention, a method of fabricating a floating-gate NMOSFET (n-type metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor) is disclosed. A silicide blocking layer, such as oxide or nitride, is utilized not only to block areas from being silicided but also to form an insulator on top of a poly-silicon gate. This insulator, along with a top electrode (control gate), forms a capacitor on top of the poly-silicon gate. The poly-silicon gate also serves as the bottom electrode of the capacitor. This configuration allows the capacitor to capacitively couple charge to the poly-silicon gate. Due to the insulating material surrounding the poly-silicon gate, the charge coupled to it can be stored for an extended period after a programming operation.

Another notable patent is for an electrically erasable programmable non-volatile memory. This invention also involves a method of fabricating a floating-gate PMOSFET (p-type metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor). Similar to the previous patent, a silicide blocking layer is used to block areas from being silicided and to form an insulator on top of a poly-silicon gate. The insulator and top electrode create a capacitor on the poly-silicon gate, which serves as the bottom electrode. This design enables the capacitor to couple charge to the poly-silicon gate, allowing for long-term storage of the charge after programming.
