Methods of forming and operating a back-side trap non-volatile memory cell. Method of forming a back-side trap non-volatile memory cell include forming a trapping material, forming two or more sub-layers of dielectric material on the trapping material, wherein a conduction band offset of each sub-layer of dielectric material is less than the conduction band offset of the material upon which it is formed, and forming a channel region on the two or more sub-layers of dielectric material. Methods of operating a back-side trap non-volatile memory cell include programming the memory cell via direct tunneling of carriers through an asymmetric band-gap tunnel insulator layer having two or more sub-layers formed beneath a channel region and having layers of material of increasing conduction band offset, and trapping the carriers in a trapping layer formed under the tunnel insulator layer. |
