Title:
Method for improving writing of information in memory targets
Abstract:
The amount of charge written into the insulator layer of an electron-beam-addressed metal-insulator-semiconductor target is increased by increasing the number of defects in the insulator to provide additional charge trapping and storage sites. Ion implantation techniques for accomplishing the increase of charge trapping sites are disclosed.
