Abstract

See full text

A first conductive region having a second conductivity type is formed in a first semiconductor over a first dielectric isolation region and having a first conductivity type. A second semiconductor having the first conductivity type is formed over the first conductive region and the first semiconductor. Isolation structures are formed extending through the second semiconductor and the first semiconductor to the first dielectric isolation region, thereby defining a first well of the second semiconductor contained within the isolation structures and a second well of the first conductive region contained within the isolation structures. A charge-storage node is formed over the first well. Source/drain regions having the second conductivity type are formed in the first well adjacent the charge-storage node. A control gate is formed over the charge-storage node. A first contact is formed to the first well. A second contact is formed to the second well through the first well.
