Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for processing of a non-volatile memory cell () which comprises a double gate stack and a single access gate. The method combines a way of processing an access gate with drain implant, separate from source implant, in a self-aligned manner. The method of the present invention does not require mask alignment sensitivity and makes it possible to implant self-aligned an extended drain for erasing of the memory device. Furthermore, the method provides a way of performing separately drain and source implant with different doping without the use of an additional mask.
