Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a structure and a method for a non-volatile memory cell of a single polycrystalline layer, in particular to an improved polycrystalline layer The reliability and sensing structure and method of the non-volatile memory cell unit. [Prior Art] '., ' φ Non-volatile memory is a type of memory that can retain its stored data even when the memory is not powered. In today's technology, non-volatile memory can be roughly divided into two types, which are read only memory (ROM), and the other is flash memory. Referring first to Figure 1, there is shown a schematic diagram of a conventional stacked polycrystalline germanium layer non-volatile memory cell unit and its data sensing as disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 5,973,957. Among them, the floating φ-transistor gates of the transistors 1〇1 and 1〇2 for storing data receive the same voltage VG and correspondingly generate currents II and 12. The comparator CMP detects the data stored in the non-volatile memory cells (the transistors 101, 102) by comparing the currents flowing through the transistors 1〇3, 1〇4 by the currents II and 12. The transistors 1〇3 and 1〇4 are connected in a diode structure and connected to the operating voltage VCC. This method of data sensing mainly uses the memory cell as the source of the reference current. In this practice, the 'sensing margin' can be received by a dummy reference memory cell to receive a similar bias voltage, and the same reference temperature cell has the same temperature sensitivity as the actual memory cell.

Gastric administration First, the first mode will be described. Referring to Fig. 8, the following description shows the non-volatile recording unit and the f-plane operation. When the transistors M1 and M2 are simultaneously written, the control CG CG2, CG3, and CG4 can simultaneously receive the high-level control VCGKVCG4. At this time, the floating polycrystalline slab gate is unloaded, and fg2 attracts electrons through the tunneling effect of the electric field F-N, and at the same time, a plurality of electrons are injected to store data. At the same time, since the transistor M1 is an N-type gold-oxygen half-field drinking crystal and the transistor M2 is a P-type gold-oxygen half-field effect transistor, the channel of the electric body M1 will be closed and the channel of the transistor M2 will be Turn on. In other words, when the data stored in the non-volatile memory cell unit 7 is to be read, only the current IBU" and IBL2 flowing out of the transistor M1 and the transistor M2 need to be compared by the comparator 72〇 (in the case of In the above example, the current IBL1 provided by the transistor M1 is smaller than the current IBL2) provided by the transistor M2, and the data stored in the non-volatile memory cell unit 7 can be sensed. The reliability of non-volatile memory cells can also be improved as the sensing boundary is effectively. The memory window therein is equal to the difference in current between one of the non-volatile memory cells and the other transistor. Of course, when the transistors M1 and M2 are simultaneously deleted, the channel of the transistor M1 will be turned on and the channel of the transistor m2 will be turned off. At this time, the current IBL1 supplied from the transistor M1 is larger than the current IBL2 provided by the transistor M2.

The non-f~~ is also earlier than the single polycrystalline dream layer as described in the middle of the patent scope, wherein the transistor is an N-type native crystal or additionally receives light doping; and the pole (1; ί_Υ) D〇Ped drain, LDD) A low threshold voltage transistor. A non-volatile memory cell unit of a single polycrystalline germanium layer, comprising: a splitting transistor 'having a gate and a first source/> and a pole; a p-type transistor having a gate and a first source/no pole; a β-ray, a pair of transistor pairs having a third transistor and a two-electrode body connected to each other, wherein the third transistor and the fourth transistor respectively have a floating gate, a polysilicon gate And a second floating polysilicon gate, and the 'pre-polysilicon gate and the second floating polysilicon gate are electrically connected to each other 28 201140588 .........32928twf.doc/I or physically isolated; the coupling capacitor, one end thereof Connecting the first one to the first floating-type polycrystalline, the other soil:: body; Second electricity: the second floating polycrystalline, its other end receiving - the second control 挥发 volatilization: note the single (four) layer of non-made, (four) ιΓΓ,:, with the first - transistor has a second source / no body fork , 分铉-1 private day and limbs and Dan Yule two $ crystal of the ^7? /, 曰曰 ^ also has a second source / no pole, and And the first source of the first electric source is recorded to the second source of the second transistor. The secret Lt towel should be specially designed for the non-cell unit of the single (four) layer described in item 16 of the Wei (4), where the first-floating polycrystalline stone gate and the second iiL gate are covered more to prevent the formation of the metal dream compound. To enhance the charge retention. It is also a non-*5e, lt cell unit of the single multi-remediation layer described in item 18 of the patent application scope, and (4) third, fourth telecrystal county] ^ type native nativ:) transistor or additional receiving light Doping is not a Norwegian and suppressing & drain, LDD) system of low low-voltage hybrid crystal. For example, please refer to the non-memory cell of the single polycrystalline layer described in item 16 of the patent scope, where the first and second age capacitors are constructed in the p-well of the deep ö-well (p_well) )in. 29
