ABSTRACT:
In a non-volatile semiconductor memory device having a MONOS structure, a memory cell section for storing information, and a periphery circuitry section for writing and reading the information with respect to the memory cell section are formed in the surface region of a silicon substrate. A plurality of memory cells is formed in the memory cell section, while a plurality of periphery circuitry transistors are formed also in the periphery circuitry section. Since the periphery circuitry transistor has a structure wherein no electric charge accumulation layer exists, it is possible to prevent from electric charge injection to the periphery circuitry transistor, whereby hot carrier characteristics of the periphery circuitry transistor are improved.
