There are provided a nonvolatile memory device and a method of fabricating the same. A gate region of the nonvolatile memory device is formed as a stack structure including a tunnel oxide layer, a trapping layer, a blocking layer and a control gate electrode. The trapping layer is formed of a high-k dielectric having a higher dielectric constant than that of the tunnel oxide layer. When the trapping layer is formed of high-k dielectric, an EOT in a same thickness can be reduced, and excitation of electrons of the control gate electrode to the tunnel oxide layer due to a high potential barrier relative to the tunnel oxide layer is prevented so that program and erase voltages can be further reduced. As such, a problem that the tunnel oxide layer is damaged due to the conventional high program and erase voltages can be solved by reducing the program and erase voltages, and program and erase speeds of the transistor can be further improved.
