Abstract
Provided are a local SONOS-type memory device and a method of manufacturing the same. The device includes a gate oxide layer formed on a silicon substrate; a conductive spacer and a dummy spacer, which are formed on the gate oxide layer and separated apart from each other, the conductive spacer and the dummy spacer having round surfaces that face outward; a pair of insulating spacers formed on a sidewall of the conductive spacer and a sidewall of the dummy spacer which face each other; an ONO layer formed in a self-aligned manner between the pair of insulating spacers; a conductive layer formed on the ONO layer in a self-aligned manner between the pair of insulating spacers; and source and drain regions formed in the silicon substrate outside the conductive spacer and the dummy spacer.
