N2 - Amorphous silicon nitride (Si3N4) exhibits a memory effect — the ability to localize electrons and holes in traps. Due to this effect, Si3N4 serves as memory medium in modern charge trap flash memory (CTFM). The idea that charged centers with a negative correlation energy act as traps responsible for the memory effect in Si3N4 was and is actively discussed. In this case, the charge transport should be limited by the Coulomb charged trap ionization via the Frenkel mechanism. The charge transport in Si3N4 is not described by the Frenkel effect. This means that the traps are not charged, as suggested by the model of negative correlation energy centers. The charge transport in Si3N4 is described by multiphonon neutral trap ionization. The traps in a Si3N4-based CTFM are neutral diamagnetic Si-Si bonds, the electron and hole localization of which is quantitatively described by the Mott polaron model.
