An EPROM-like memory includes a substrate having a source region, a drain region, and a channel. The memory includes a gate stack formed by a gate oxide, a storage electrode, a second gate oxide and a gate electrode. The gate oxide is configured on the substrate above the channel. The storage electrode is configured on the gate oxide. The second gate oxide is configured on the storage electrode. The gate electrode is configured on the second gate oxide. The memory includes an interspace that is configured between the drain region and the storage electrode. The interspace is filled with a gas or contains a vacuum. The memory includes an outer spacing web that is configured laterally beside the gate stack. The outer spacing web is also configured on the drain region. The outer spacing web is made of doped polycrystalline silicon.
