A memory charge storage device has regions of sacrificial material
overlying a substrate (12). For each memory cell a first doped region
(20) and a second doped region (24) are formed within the substrate and
on opposite sides of one (16) of the regions of sacrificial material. A
discrete charge storage layer (28) overlies the substrate and is between
the regions of sacrificial material. In one form a control electrode (34)
is formed per memory cell overlying the substrate with an underlying
substrate diffusion and laterally adjacent one of the regions of
sacrificial material. A third substrate diffusion (60) is positioned
between the two control electrodes. In another form two control
electrodes are formed per memory cell with a substrate diffusion
underlying each control electrode. In both forms a select electrode (64)
overlies and is between both of the two control electrodes.
