Abstract:
A flash memory device is disposed on a semiconductor substrate. The flash memory device includes flash memory cells arranged in rows and columns. Respective flash memory cells include respective access transistors and respective floating gate transistors. The respective access transistors have respective access gates, and the respective floating gate transistors have respective control gates arranged over respective floating gates. First and second wordlines extend substantially in parallel with one another and correspond to first and second rows which neighbor one another. The first wordline is coupled to access gates of access transistors along the first row. The second wordline is coupled to access gates of access transistors along the second row. Nearest edges of the first and second wordlines include at least one wing which extends laterally outward from a sidewall of one of the first and second wordlines towards a sidewall the other of the first and second wordlines.

Abstract:
A device includes a first plurality of conductive strips have lengthwise directions in a first direction, a selector array overlapping the first plurality of conductive strips, an electrode array overlapping the selector array, a plurality of memory strips over the electrode array, and a second plurality of conductive strips overlapping the plurality of memory strips. The plurality of memory strips and the second plurality of conductive strips have lengthwise directions in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction.
