  • Patent number: 7525847
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes at least two transistors and a charge-trapping structure. The charge-trapping structure traps charges, which are moved from a selected transistor toward a non-selected transistor, adjacent to the selected transistor among the transistors, thereby preventing a threshold voltage of the non-selected transistor from being increased. Thus, the charge-trapping structure traps the charges so that an increase of the threshold voltage of the non-selected voltage is suppressed.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6157069
    Abstract: A method of fabricating a mask ROM includes forming a trench on a first conductivity type semiconductor substrate, implanting a second conductivity type impurity ion in at least a surface portion of the semiconductor substrate where the trench is formed, forming an insulating oxide layer on a surface of the semiconductor substrate, including a surface of the trench, forming gate oxide layers of both sides of the trench, forming first and second gates on the gate, oxide layers and forming a first conductivity type channel by implanting a first conductivity type impurity ion in one side of the trench. As such, the resulting mask ROM includes two transistors on either side of a trench having channels along the side walls of the trench. The resulting mask ROM has a reduced surface width, enhancing integration.
