Abstract

A method of programming the storage comprises setting the storage to an initial state of a first grid threshold voltage, performing a processing sequence including: applying a voltage bias between the grid and the first junction region to cause electric hole to migrate towards and be retained in the trapping layer, and evaluating a read current generated in response to the voltage bias to determine whether a second grid threshold voltage is reached, wherein the second grid threshold voltage is lower than the first grid threshold voltage. The processing sequence is repeated a number of times by varying one or more time the voltage bias between the grid and the first junction region until the second grid threshold voltage is reached and the storage is in a program state.
