Eeprom device and method of fabricating the same

Abstract

A memory device comprises a semiconductor substrate of a first conductive type, a memory transistor, a select transistor, a floating junction region, a common source region, and a bit line junction region. The memory transistor positions on the semiconductor substrate and comprises a gate insulating film formed on the semiconductor substrate and a memory transistor gate formed on the gate insulating film. The gate insulating film includes a tunnel insulating film. The select transistor positions on the semiconductor substrate and is separated from the memory transistor gate. The select transistor comprises a gate insulating film formed on the semiconductor substrate and a select transistor gate formed on the gate insulating film. A floating junction region is formed of a second conductive type on the semiconductor substrate below the tunnel insulating film. The common source region of a second conductive type is formed on the semiconductor substrate adjacent to the memory transistor gate and separated from the floating junction region. A bit line junction region of a second conductive type is formed on the semiconductor substrate adjacent to the select transistor gate and is separated from the floating junction region, wherein the common source region includes a single junction region with a first doping concentration, and a depth of the common source region is shallower than a depth of the floating junction region and the bit line junction region.
