Abstract :
A new electrically eraseable nonvolatile charge storage device is described. The electrically eraseable floating-gate avalanche injection MOS (E2FAMOS) structure is an n-channel dual-stacked-gate MOS transistor programmed by avalanche injection from the pinchoff region and erased by hot electron injection from the floating gate.
