Aim of this work is the investigation of Random Telegraph Signal (RTS) in Flash memory cell. Current fluctuations have been performed also as a function of temperature in order to characterize the nature of traps responsible for noise in relatively thick tunnel oxide. Trap energy level and spatial localization from the Si/SiO2 interface has been determined. The impact of stress has been also investigated showing no significant noise increase in single cell. This has been ascribed to the tunnel oxide technology whose heavy nitridation allows minimizing the degradation of the region responsible for RTS in Flash memory cell.
