Electronic memory device having high density non-volatile memory cells and a reduced capacitive interference cell-to-cell

摘要

An electronic memory device with a high density of non-volatile memory cells has a reduced capacitance cell-to-cell interference. The memory cells are integrated on a semiconductor substrate and are organized in a matrix of cells with word lines and bit lines connected to the cells. Each memory cell includes at least one floating gate transistor having a floating gate region projecting from the substrate, and a control gate region capacitively coupled to the floating gate region. Between the cells of opposite word lines, a lateral coating is provided that includes at least one conductive layer floating along the direction of the bit lines.
