Problems solved by technology

However, when the voltage is lower than the breakdown voltage of the diode, the charge may still be trapped in the silicon oxide / silicon nitride / silicon oxide (ONO) layer, causing the device to be programmed.
Moreover, in this way, the input voltage will be reduced, which will affect the writing speed

Abstract

The non-volatile ROM has structure comprising one character line including one metal layer and one polysilicon layer formed on the substrate; one trapping layer between the character line and the substrate; and one protective polysilicon line formed on the substrate and connected electrically to the character line and earthed doped area on the substrate, with the protective polysilicon line having resistance higher than that of the character line.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a read-only memory and its manufacturing method, and in particular to a non-volatile read-only memory and its manufacturing method. Background technique [0002] The current practice of non-volatile read-only memory is to form a trapping layer on the substrate first. The material of the trapping layer is a composite layer of silicon oxide / silicon nitride / silicon oxide (Oxide-Nitride-Oxide, ONO for short). The formed stacked (Stacked) structure, the read-only memory using this material as the capture layer is called Nitride Read Only Memory (NROM for short). Then, form a polysilicon gate on the silicon oxide / silicon nitride / silicon oxide (ONO) layer, and finally form source regions in the substrate on both sides of the silicon oxide / silicon nitride / silicon oxide (ONO) layer with the drain region. [0003] The plasma used in the manufacturing process of non-volatile silicon nitride read-only memory (NROM) will cause the...
