Abstract :
This paper describes an improved analytical F-N channel erase and VT distribution model by including both process and cell parameters. This model is also able to predict the tightening of VT distribution after using F-N soft reprogramming techniques. The accuracy of the model is verified by measured VT curves and distribution. This new model provides a simple and useful tool for cell optimization and reliability design-in by accurately correlating VTE distribution to physical parameters of process and memory cell
