Abstract
A method of fabricating a nitride read only memory. A trapping dielectric sandwiched structure, including an insulation layer, a charge trap layer and an insulation layer, is formed on a substrate. An opening with indented sidewalls is formed in the insulation layer. A thermal oxide layer is formed to fill the opening, such that the indented sidewalls are completely sealed. The charge trap layer is thus sealed by the insulation layers and the thermal oxide layer to avoid the direct contact between the control gate and the charge trap layer, so as to prevent the data loss.
