The side part of the second oxide thin film structure, the sidewalls of the gate structure, the tunnel insulating film or the substrate can define the second air gap(164).
Abstract:
A nonvolatile memory element is provided to reduce an electric field by using a second blocking insulation film and reduce trap charge density by using a first blocking insulation film, thereby lengthening a retention time of a device and reducing back tunneling currents during an erase operation. A nonvolatile memory element comprises a tunnel insulating layer formed on a semiconductor substrate, a charge trapping layer formed on the tunnel insulating layer, a blocking insulation film formed on the charge trapping layer, and a control gate electrode formed on the blocking insulation film. The blocking insulation film more includes a first blocking insulation film and a second blocking insulation film. At this time, the bulk trap density of the first blocking insulation film is smaller than the bulk trap density of the second blocking insulation film. The first blocking insulation film is arranged between the charge trapping layer and the second blocking insulation film. The second blocking insulation film uses a high dielectric insulating layer in which a dielectric rate is larger than the tunnel insulating layer. The thickness of the first blocking insulation film is 1 nm to 100 nm. The thickness of the second blocking insulation film is 1 to 100 nm.
