Abstract :
In this paper a novel isolation scheme for implementation in alternate metal virtual ground (AMG) EPROM and Flash EEPROM arrays is described. It is shown that, unlike the conventional LOCOS isolation, the new isolation scheme allows the AMO concept to be scaled below 0.6¿m geometries. Electrical results are presented for arrays with the new isolation scheme.
