The present application discloses a flash memory, wherein a gate dielectric layer of a storage transistor comprises a tunneling dielectric layer, a storage dielectric layer, and a barrier dielectric layer stacked in sequence. The storage dielectric layer includes a first silicon nitride layer, a second interface layer, and a third silicon nitride layer stacked in sequence. The material for the second interface layer is silicon oxynitride. With the storage transistor in a programming state, programming electrons are stored in the defect of the first silicon nitride layer and the defect of the third silicon nitride layer, and the outflow of the programming electrons out of the storage dielectric layer is reduced by means of the feature that the width of band gap of silicon oxynitride is greater than that of silicon nitride. The present application also discloses a method of making a flash memory.
