First Evidence of Temporary Read Errors in TLC 3D-NAND Flash Memories Exiting From an Idle State

This paper presents a new reliability threat that affects 3D-NAND Flash memories when a read operation is performed exiting from an idle state. In particular, a temporary large increase of the fail bits count is reported for the layers read as first after a sequence of program/verify and a idle rete...
