NONVOLATILE SEMICONDUCTOR MEMORY DEVICE AND METHOD OF DATA WRITE THEREIN

摘要

A memory cell comprises a first semiconductor layer, and a first conductive layer. The first semiconductor layer extends in a perpendicular direction with respect to a semiconductor substrate. The first conductive layer sandwiches a charge storage layer with the first semiconductor layer. A control circuit executes a first program operation and then executes a second program operation. The first program operation supplies a first voltage to the body of the memory cell and supplies a second voltage larger than the first voltage to the gate of the memory cell. The second program operation renders the body of the memory cell in a floating state and supplies a third voltage which is positive to the gate of the memory cell.
