Abstract

The present invention provides a non-volatile memory and a manufacturing method for the same. In the non-volatile memory, a floating gate structure has a first sharp portion and a second sharp portion, and a corner formed by a side surface of the floating gate structure and a part of a top surface of the floating gate structure is not covered by a control gate structure. The corner is connected between the first sharp portion and one end of the second sharp portion. A tunneling dielectric layer of an erasing gate structure covers the first sharp portion, the second sharp portion, and a tip part of the corner.
