Abstract
An array of electrically erasable programmable read only memory (EEPROM) includes a first row of floating gate, a second row of floating gate, two spacers, a first row of word line and a second row of word line. The first row of floating gate and the second row of floating gate are disposed on a substrate along a first direction. The two spacers are disposed between and parallel to the first row of floating gate and the second row of floating gate. The first row of word line is sandwiched by one of the spacers and the adjacent first row of floating gate, and the second row of word line is sandwiched by the other one of the spacers and the adjacent second row of floating gate. The present invention also provides a method of forming said array of electrically erasable programmable read only memory (EEPROM).
