A silicon on insulator (SOI) multi-gate field effect transistor electrically Programmable Read-Only Memory (MuFET EPROM) includes a substrate having a dielectric surface. A first semiconducting region is in or on the dielectric surface. A source region, a drain region and a channel region interposed between the source and drain are formed in first semiconducting region. A gate dielectric layer is on the channel region. At least a second semiconducting region in or on the dielectric surface is spaced apart from the first semiconducting region. A first electrode layer comprises a first electrode portion including a transistor gate electrode and a control gate electrode electrically isolated from one another. The transistor gate overlies the channel region to form a transistor. The control gate extends to overlay a portion of the second semiconducting region. The transistor gate and thus the transistor and the control gate are capacitively coupled to one another by at least one MOS coupling capacitor, with one plate of the MOS coupling capacitor ohmically coupled to or including the second semiconducting region.
