Disclosed herein is a method for inhibiting a programming disturbance of a flash memory, which relates to a technical field of a non-volatile memory in ultra-large-scale integrated circuit fabrication technologies. In the present invention, an dopant gradient of a PN junction between a substrate and a drain is reduced by adding a step of performing an angled ion implantation of donor dopants into a standard process for a flash memory, so that an electric field of the PN junction between the substrate and the drain is reduced, and consequently the programming disturbance is inhibited. Meanwhile, a dopant gradient of the PN junction between a channel and the drain is maintained, so that an electric field of the PN junction between the channel and the drain, which is necessary for programming, is maintained, and thus the programming efficiency and the programming speed can be ensured. The programming disturbance can be effectively inhibited without increasing numbers of masks used for photolithography according to the invention, thus the present invention is significantly advantageous to the improvement of the flash memory reliability. |
