Abstract

A method for fabricating a first memory cell and a second memory cell electrically isolated from each other. The method including forming a first polysilicon (poly I) layer on an oxide coated substrate and masking the poly I layer to pattern the first memory cell and the second memory cell and an unmasked portion therebetween. The unmasked portion of the poly I layer is transformed into an insulator such that the insulator electrically isolates the poly I layer (e.g., floating gate) of the first memory cell from the poly I layer (e.g., floating gate) of the second memory cell.
