Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure generally relates to semiconductor structures and, more particularly, to charge trap memory devices and methods of manufacture and operation. The semiconductor memory includes: a charge trap transistor comprising a gate structure, a source region and a drain region; and a self-heating circuit which selectively applies an alternating bias direction between the source region and the drain region of the charge trap transistor to provide an erase operation or a programming operation of the charge trap transistor.
