A semiconductor device with an amorphous silicon (a-Si) metal-aluminum oxide-semiconductor (MAS) memory cell structure. The device includes a substrate, a dielectric layer overlying the substrate, and one or more source or drain regions embedded in the dielectric layer with a co-planar surface of n-type a-Si and the dielectric layer. Additionally, the device includes a p-i-n a-Si diode junction. The device further includes an aluminum oxide charge trapping layer on the a-Si p-i-n diode junction and a metal control gate overlying the aluminum oxide layer. A method is provided for making the a-Si MAS memory cell structure and can be repeated to integrate the structure three-dimensionally. |
