ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a programmable structure for programmable integrated circuits, such as programmable read-only memory (PROM) which utilizes one-sided ozone spacers constructed on the digitlines as well as on the wordlines thereby providing two, one time programmable nodes at each digit/word/digit' intersection. An oxide
itride/oxide layer (ONO) is used as an interface between underlying parallel rows of digit lines, having one-sided ozone spacers, and overlying parallel columns of word lines, also having one-sided ozone spacers, and further overlying parallel rows' of digitlines' in a programmable read only memory. With a lower level of digitlines passing under a middle level of wordlines and an upper level of digitlines' passing over the middle level of wordlines, a row/column/digit' matrix is formed thereby providing a programmable row/column/row' matrix in a memory array. Each crossing point of the digit/word lines and the word/digit' lines in the matrix will be permanently programmed to either a one or a zero by rupturing the thin ONO dielectric interface by applying the appropriate voltage potential between the associated digit/word/digit' line conductors.
