This work presents experimental results concerning erratic behavior in flash memories obtained by tracking the threshold voltage dynamics during any single erase operation and providing a deeper insight into their physical nature. The particular shape of the experimental erase curves allows the derivation of a nearly linear relationship between the amplitude of erratic threshold shifts and the equivalent barrier height controlling Fowler-Nordheim injection

Abstract

This work presents experimental results concerning erratic behavior in flash memories obtained by tracking the threshold voltage dynamics during any single erase operation and providing a deeper insight into their physical nature. The particular shape of the experimental erase curves allows the derivation of a nearly linear relationship between the amplitude of erratic threshold shifts and the equivalent barrier height controlling Fowler-Nordheim injection
