    Abstract: The present invention relates to a charge trapping device and a method for manufacturing the same. The charge trapping device includes: a substrate having a first surface and an opposite second surface; a tunneling insulating layer, disposed on the first surface of the substrate; a charge trapping layer, disposed on the tunneling insulating layer and including a first dielectric layer and a second dielectric layer, in which the first dielectric layer is connected to the tunneling insulating layer, the second dielectric layer is disposed over the first dielectric layer, and a conduction band offset between the first dielectric layer and the substrate is larger than that between the second dielectric layer and the substrate; and a blocking insulating layer, disposed on the charge trapping layer and connected to the second dielectric layer. Accordingly, the charge trapping device of the present invention has excellent programming, and erasing and charge retention properties.
