Abstract
An non-volatile memory cell is described. The non-volatile memory cell includes a substrate, insulators, a floating gate and a control gate. The substrate has a fin. The insulators are located over the substrate, wherein the fin is located between the insulators. The floating gate is located over the fin and the insulators. The control gate is located over the floating gate on the insulators and includes at least one of first contact slots located over the sidewalls of the floating gate.
