ABSTRACT:
In the semiconductor substrate, an insulation film designed for the element separation is formed. A gate insulation film and a floating gate electrode are formed in the element region surrounded by the insulation film for the element separation. The lower portions of the four lateral surfaces of the floating gate electrode are covered by the interlayer insulation film. The interlayer insulation film is made thicker than the gate insulation film. The upper surface of the floating gate electrode and the upper portions of the four lateral surfaces are covered by the control gate electrode. The upper surface of the control gate electrode is made flat. With this structure, the electrostatic capacitance between the floating gate electrode and the control gate electrode can be increased and stabilized.
