Abstract

A method for production of a memory cell arrangement which includes vertical MOS transistors as memory cells, wherein the information is stored utilizing at least three different threshold voltage values of the transistors by multi-level programming. One threshold voltage value is realised by the thickness of the gate dielectric in the sense of a thick oxide transistor and the other threshold voltage values are realised by different channel dopings. The arrangement can be produced with as area requirement for each memory cell of 2 F (F: minimum structure size).
