Abstract

A non-volatile memory device and its manufacturing method are provided. The non-volatile memory device includes a substrate and a plurality of first floating gates and a plurality of second floating gates formed on the substrate. The substrate includes a center region and two border regions located on opposite sides of the center region. The center region and two border regions are located in an array region. The first floating gates are located in the center region, and the second floating gates are located in one of the border regions. Each of the first floating gates has a first width, and each of the second floating gates has a second width less than the first width. There is a first spacing between the first floating gates, and there is a second spacing which is greater than the first spacing between the second floating gates.
