Nonvolatile semiconductor storage device and its manufacturing method

摘要

There is provided a nonvolatile semiconductor storage device less subject to variances of electric characteristics among memory cells. A floating gate electrode provided on a substrate is made of two or more materials different in carrier trapping efficiency so as to accumulate carriers and thereby store data in the floating gate electrode. Thus a region without so large changes of the threshold voltage is produced, and the portion with a small change is used as the margin for circuit operations, thereby to eliminate variances among cells and realize high-speed operations.
