Nonvolatile memory devices with oblique charge storage regions and methods of forming the same

摘要

A nonvolatile memory device includes an active region defined by a device isolation layer in a semiconductor substrate, a word line passing over the active region and a charge storage region defined by a crossing of the active region and the word line and disposed between the active region and the word line. The charge storage region is disposed at an oblique angle with respect to the word line.
