Abstract

A method for creating NAND flash memory. Source implantations are performed at a first implantation angle to areas between stacked gate structures of a NAND string. Drain implantations are performed at a second implantation angle to areas between the stacked gate structures. The source implantation can include n-type and p-type materials implanted under different angles, and the drain implantation can include n-type and p-type materials implanted under different angles. Or, the source implantation can include multiple n-type implantations under different angles, and the drain implantation can include multiple n-type implantations under different angles.
