摘要 |
A semiconductor device including a semiconductor substrate having an active region isolated by an element isolation insulating film; a floating gate electrode film formed on a gate insulating film residing on the active region; an interelectrode insulating film formed above an upper surface of the element isolation insulating film and an upper surface and sidewalls of the floating gate electrode film, the interelectrode insulating film being configured by multiple film layers including a high dielectric film having a dielectric constant equal to or greater than a silicon nitride film; a control gate electrode film formed on the interelectrode insulating film; and a silicon oxide film formed between the upper surface of the floating gate electrode film and the interelectrode insulating film; wherein the high dielectric film of the interelectrode insulating film is placed in direct contact with the sidewalls of the floating gate electrode film.
