Abstract
A flash memory structure comprises a silicon substrate having at least one concave structure, two doped regions positioned in the semiconductor substrate and at two sides of the concave structure, at least one carrier-trapping region positioned in the concave structure, and a conductive layer positioned above the concave structure. The concave structure comprises two grooves having a U-shaped or V-shaped profile. The grooves have an inclined plane with (111) orientation and a bottom plane with (100) orientation of the silicon substrate. The carrier-trapping region comprises a dielectric stack positioned in the concave structure, wherein the dielectric stack comprises a first oxide layer positioned on the surface of the silicon substrate, a nitride block positioned on the surface of the first oxide layer and in the concave structure, and a second oxide layer covering the first oxide layer and the nitride block.
