Abstract

Provided is a method of forming a floating gate, a non-volatile memory device using the same, and a method of fabricating the non-volatile memory device, in which nano-crystals of nano-size whose density and size can be easily adjusted, are synthesized using micelles so as to be used as the floating gate of the non-volatile memory device. The floating gate is fabricated by forming a tunnel oxide film on the semiconductor substrate, coating a gate formation solution on the tunnel oxide film in which the gate formation solution includes micelle templates into which precursors capable of synthesizing metallic salts in nano-structures formed by a self-assembly method are introduced, and arranging the metallic salts on the tunnel oxide film by removing the micelle templates, to thereby form the floating gate.
