Problems solved by technology

[0004] For NOR flash memory, the threshold voltage should remain stable, and its threshold voltage depends on the electrons in the floating gate. Through gate disturbance testing, it is found that the threshold voltage stability of NOR flash memory becomes worse as the size of semiconductor devices continues to decrease. , the reason may be that the spacer on the gate is damaged when the contact hole opening is formed between the gates, which affects the performance of the device and even makes the spacer invalid

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a semiconductor device, in particular, the present invention relates to a semiconductor device, a preparation method thereof, and an electronic device. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of portable electronic devices (such as mobile phones, digital cameras, MP3 players, and PDAs, etc.), the requirements for data storage are getting higher and higher. Non-volatile flash memory has become the most important storage component in these devices due to its ability to save data even when power is off. Among them, because flash memory (flash memory) can achieve high chip storage density, and does not introduce new materials , The manufacturing process is compatible, therefore, it can be more easily and reliably integrated into own digital and analog circuits. [0003] NOR and NAND are two main non-volatile flash memory technologies on the market today. NOR flash memory (Flash) devices are a type of non-v...
