Patent ID: 7893485

Claim:
A machine readable storage medium embodying a design structure, the design structure comprising a set of data representing at least one vertical trench SONOS memory cell, said set of data including: first data representing a vertical trench extending from a topmost surface of a top semiconductor layer of a semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI) substrate through a buried insulating layer of said SOI substrate into a bottom semiconductor layer of said SOI substrate; second data representing a source diffusion contacting a bottom surface of said vertical trench and located within said bottom semiconductor layer; third data representing a select gate channel located on one side of said vertical trench and within said bottom semiconductor layer; fourth data representing an outdiffused/Si-containing bridge in contact with a sidewall of said buried insulator layer, a sidewall of said vertical trench, and a topmost surface of said select gate channel; and fifth data representing a silicided doped region in contact with an upper portion of said outdiffused/Si-containing bridge.
