ABSTRACT:
An electrically erasable programmable read-only memory CEEPROM) includes a field effect transistor and a control gate spaced apart on a first insulating layer, a second insulating layer formed over the field effect transistor and the control gate and a common floating gate on the second insulating layer over the channel of the field effect transistor and the control gate, the floating gate thus also forms the gate electrode of the field-effect transistor. The EEPROM devices may be interconnected in a memory array and a plurality of memory arrays may be stacked on upon another. The invention overcomes the problem of using a non-standard silicon-on-insulator (SOI) CMOS process to make EEPROM arrays with high areal density.
