The direct lateral profile and retention characteristics of locally trapped-charges in the nitride layer of the two-bit polysilicon-oxide-nitride-oxide-silicon (SONOS) memory are investigated by using the charge pumping method. After charges injection at the drain junction region, the lateral diffusion of trapped charges as a function of retention time is directly shown by the results of the local threshold voltage and the trapped-charges quantities.

The SONOS devices have been fabricated by the conventional $0.35{\mu}m$ complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) process with NOR array. Two-bit operation using conventional process achieve the high density memory compare with other two-bit memory. Lateral diffusion phenomenon in the two-bit operation cause soft error in the memory. In this study, the programming conditions arc investigated in order to reduce lateral diffusion for two-bit operation of CSL-NOR type SONOS flash cell.
