Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a substrate, a dielectric layer and a floating gate. The dielectric layer disposed on the substrate. The floating gate disposed on the dielectric layer. After a first programming process, the floating gate is configured to store first electrons that are to be combined with ions from the dielectric layer. After a second programming process, the floating gate is configured to store second electrons, and a number of the second electrons is larger than a number of the first electrons.
