Wow! That would imply some sort of self-catalyzed
reaction, and I'd be
very interested in hearing how that works!
It works because an EPROM is a bunch of tiny little capacitors (storing
electrons on the floating gates), and the charge gradually leaks off of them.
Just like bits in a DRAM, but much more slowly.
