VOID FORMATION FOR CHARGE TRAP STRUCTURES

Abstract:

Various embodiments include methods and apparatus having a number of charge trap structures, where each charge trap structure includes a dielectric barrier between a gate and a blocking dielectric region, the blocking dielectric region located on a charge trap region of the charge trap structure. At least a portion of the gate can be separated by a void from a region which the charge trap structure is directly disposed. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.
