  • Abstract
    In this paper, different solutions, fully compatible with current CMOS process, to extend the floating gate flash memory technology to the 45nm and possibly 32nm nodes, are presented. In particular, new modules (discrete traps memories, and more specifically silicon nanocrystal memories), new materials (high-k materials integrated in the tunnel barrier and/or interpoly layer) and innovative architectures (FinFlash memories) are discussed
