Abstract
An 1 Gb NAND flash memory has been successfully developed by integrating new technologies, inverse narrow-width effect (INWE) suppression scheme, 32-cell NAND flash combined with the scaling-down of tunnel oxide, inter-poly ONO, and gate poly re-oxidation. It is implemented using KrF photolithography along with a resolution enhancing technique, the planarized surface by etch-back and CMP processes, highly selective contact etching and nonoverlapped dual damascene metallization. Thus, for the first time, a 1 Gb NAND flash memory with mass-producible chip size of 132 mm/sup 2/, lower Vcc operation below 1.8 V and lower power consumption, has been obtained.
