  • Abstract
    In this paper we present our recent results on charge trapping memory arrays with HfSiOx high -K dielectrics and TiN as the metal gate aimed at low power/low voltage embedded flash and E2PROM applications. HfSiOx/SiN memory arrays operated with moderately low program/erase voltages, with an excellent endurance and good retention up to 85°C are demonstrated.
