To provide a nonvolatile memory device suppressing a reduction of a data retention characteristic even if charges injected and stored into a local area of a nitride film is redistributed to achieve a reduction of voltage, the nonvolatile memory device in which hot electrons are injected into the local area of the nitride film at one or both of source.drain regions side to store data in a memory transistor is satisfied with a standard for evaluating a film quality of the nitride film, the standard being defined by one of the followings: a density of the bond group of silicon and hydrogen being under 1x1021 cm-3; an extinction coefficient in an ultraviolet region at a wavelength of 240 nm being under 0.10 or the extinction coefficient in 230 nm being under 0.14; an optical energy, a peak wavelength of an luminance spectrum, or a peak energy thereof.
