Source side self boosting technique for non-volatile memory

A non-volatile semiconductor memory system (or other type of memory system) is programmed in a manner that avoids program disturb. In one embodiment that includes a flash memory system using a NAND architecture, program disturb is avoided by increasing the channel potential of the source side of the NAND string during the programming process. One exemplar implementation includes applying a voltage (e.g. Vdd) to the source contact and turning on the source side select transistor for the NAND sting corresponding to the cell being inhibited. Another implementation includes applying a pre-charging voltage to the unselected word lines of the NAND string corresponding to the cell being inhibited prior to applying the program voltage.

Method of manufacturing semiconductor device

To provide a semiconductor device using a Fin-FET and having a contact configuration such that the GIDL is reduced while limiting an increase in contact resistance, source and drain regions of the Fin-FET are formed by solid-phase diffusion positively utilizing impurity implantation after forming of contact holes 13 and oozing-out of an impurity from polysilicon contact plugs 14. Also, contact plugs 14 are extended to side surfaces of convex semiconductor layers 101a to form side wall portions 14a, thereby increasing the contact area.

Dark current reduction circuitry for CMOS active pixel sensors

A row driver circuit is disclosed for supplying a reset voltage to a plurality of reset transistors of an active pixel sensor array while minimizing gate induced drain leakage (GIDL). The row driver circuit is configured to supply a high voltage level (e.g., Vdd or higher) to the reset transistors of the array during a reset operation. The row driver circuit is further configured to supply a low voltage level (e.g., a voltage level higher than ground) to the reset transistors of the array when the pixels are not being reset (e.g., during integration). The reduced potential difference realized between the respective gates of the reset transistors and the respective photodiodes of the pixels, when the pixels are not being reset, results in reduced GIDL.
