Abstract

This paper presents a novel flash memory cell, BiNOR, suitable for fastspeed, lowpower, and highperformance application. The proposed BiNOR structure allows random access, channel FowlerNordheim (FN) tunneling program/erase in NORtype array (In the past, channel FN tunneling program/erase can only be done in NAND array). Using the designated localized Pwell structure, BiNOR realizes the hot hole free, lowpower bidirectional channel FN tunneling program and erase, and alleviates the oxide instability induced during source erase in NORtype flash memory.
