The main feature of the aforementioned non-volatile memory element is the use of an insulating dielectric layer of tantalum nitride as a charge trapping medium. Since the nitride layer has a latent density, the hot electrons entering the nitride layer can be trapped therein, thereby forming a non-uniform concentration distribution to speed up reading. Take data speed and avoid leakage current. As for conventional floating gate flash memory, _ uses a polysilicon floating gate to store charge, and a floating gate requires a control gate (contr〇i gate). Compared with the two, the former has the advantages of simple manufacturing process and low manufacturing cost, and the latter requires a relatively complicated process to cooperate because it is necessary to fabricate a floating gate-intermediate dielectric layer-control gate three-layer gate stack structure. Therefore, the cost is also high. • SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The main object of the present invention is to provide an improved non-volatile memory device structure and manufacturing method.

Then, a photoresist mask pattern is formed on the doped polysilicon 114, which defines the gate locations and patterns in the peripheral circuit region 102 and the memory array region 101. As shown in FIG. 14, using the photoresist mask pattern 43 as an etch hard mask, a dry etching process is performed to etch away the doped polysilicon layer 114 not covered by the photoresist mask pattern 43, thus completing the periphery. The gate region 1〇2 and the gate electrode in the memory array region are defined, and the gate oxide layer M2 is formed in the memory array region 101.
