A flash EEPROM or split gate flash EEPROM is made on a doped silicon semiconductor N-well formed in a doped semiconductor substrate. A channel with a given width is formed in the N-well which is covered with a tunnel oxide layer, and an N+ doped polysilicon floating gate electrode layer, which can be patterned into a split gate floating gate electrode having a narrower width than the channel width. An interelectrode dielectric layer is formed over the floating gate electrode and the exposed tunnel oxide. A control gate electrode includes a layer composed of P+ doped polysilicon over the interelectrode dielectric layer. The tunnel oxide layer, the floating gate electrode layer, the interelectrode dielectric layer, and the control gate electrode are patterned into a gate electrode stack above the channel. A source region and a drain region are formed in the surface of the substrate with a P type of dopant, the source region and the drain region being self-aligned with the gate electrode stack.
