Abstract
A memory comprises a gate oxide layer formed on a semiconductor substrate; an ion trap region formed in a corner portion of the gate oxide layer; a floating gate formed on the gate oxide layer; a dielectric layer formed on the floating gate; a control gate formed on the dielectric layer; a spacer provided along side walls of a formed gate; an LDD formed under the spacer on the semiconductor substrate, the LDD being doped at a low concentration with impurities; and a source/drain region formed on an element region of the semiconductor substrate contacting the LDD, the source/drain region being doped at a high concentration with impurities. In one embodiment, the ion trap region is formed by performing ion injection into a corner portion of the gate oxide after the gate, including the control gate and the floating gate, is formed.
