ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device includes a substrate having a pair of first diffused regions, and a gate including an oxide film provided on the substrate, and a charge storage layer provided on the oxide film, the charge storage layer being an electrical insulator capable of storing charges in bit areas. The oxide film has first portions related to the bit areas and a second portion that is located between the bit areas and is thicker than the first potions. The first portions serve as tunneling oxide portions, while the second portion allows reduced tunneling.
