Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9806139A1] The invention concerns a non-volatile write-once storage cell comprising a MOS transistor which, as gate dielectric, has a triple dielectric layer consisting of a first silicon oxide layer (51), a silicon nitride layer (52) and a second silicon oxide layer (53). The first silicon oxide layer (51) and the second silicon oxide layer (53) are each at least 3 nm thick. The storage cell is not erasable and can hold data for a period of more than 1000 years.
