Abstract:
Floating gate memory cells in vertical memory. A control gate is formed between a first tier of dielectric material and a second tier of dielectric material. A floating gate is formed between the first tier of dielectric material and the second tier of dielectric material, wherein the floating gate includes a protrusion extending towards the control gate. A charge blocking structure is formed between the floating gate and the control gate, wherein at least a portion of the charge blocking structure wraps around the protrusion.

Claim (Index 2):
A memory array, comprising:\n multiple strings of memory cells separated by alternating dielectrics separating each memory cell in the string by a respective alternating dielectric from an adjacent memory cell in the string,\n wherein a memory cell string includes,\n a respective channel material forming a channel for memory cells of the string, and \n wherein each memory cell of the string comprises,\n a control gate extending between a first alternating dielectric and a second alternating dielectric, \n a floating gate extending between the first alternating dielectric and the second alternating dielectric, the floating gate including a first portion and a second portion extending from the first portion, \n \u2003wherein the first portion contacts each of the first and second alternating dielectrics, and \n a charge blocking structure between the floating gate and the control gate, a portion of the charge blocking structure extending between the second portion and the first and second alternating dielectrics; and \n \n a tunnel dielectric between the first portion of the floating gates of the memory cells of the string and the channel material.
