Abstract

This invention relates to a semiconductor non-volatile floating grid storage based on double-layer nm Si structure, which takes p-type Si (resistivity: 1-10Ohm.cm) as a substrate and sets source and drain at either side of the substrate, and sets a SiO2 layer formed by a first tunnel dielectric layer of 1-2nm thick or a SiNx layer with the thickness of 3-5nm on the substrate, then a first Si nm layer with the grain size of 2-7nm, then a second tunnel dielectric layer of a SiO2 layer of 1-2nm thick or a SiNx layer of 3-5nm thick, then forms a second Si nm layer with the grain size of 2-7nm to be deposited to form a control SiN dielectric layer in the thickness of 8-20nm and a polysilicon grid is on the SiO or the SiN dielectric layer.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a semiconductor non-volatile floating gate memory based on nano-silicon grains, in particular to a novel semiconductor non-volatile floating-gate memory based on a double-layer nano-silicon structure and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] As a typical device of non-volatile floating gate memory, flash memory (Flash memory) has been widely used in mobile electronic devices such as U disk, MP3 and mobile phones. It is promoting the modernization of people's daily life and is expected to replace personal computers in the near future. The hard disk in the computer, so that when the computer is turned on and turned off, it is not necessary to read and re-store the information in the memory from the hard disk. [0003] Research in recent years has shown that in the process of miniaturization and low power consumption of flash memory devices, they have reached the limit of nanometer size, so that metal-oxide-s...
