<正>Performance and reliability of a 2 transistor Si nanocrystal nonvolatile memory(NVM) are investigated. A good performance of the memory cell has been achieved,including a fast program/erase(P/E) speed under low voltages,an excellent data retention(maintaining for 10 years) and good endurance with a less threshold voltage shift of less than 10%after 10~4 P/E cycles.The data show that the device has strong potential for future embedded NVM applications.
