A memory device, a manufacturing method thereof, and an integrated circuit thereof are provided for storing information over a long period of time even if the memory device is manufactured at low temperatures. On a substrate made of glass, etc., a memory transistor and a selection transistor are formed, with a silicon nitride film and a silicon dioxide film in between. The memory transistor and the selection transistor are connected in series at a second impurity region. The conduction region for memory of the memory transistor is made of non-single crystal silicon and a storage region comprises a plurality of dispersed particulates made of non-single crystal silicon. Therefore, electrical charges can be stored partially if a tunnel insulating film has any defects. The tunnel insulating film is formed by exposing the surface of the conduction region for memory to the ionized gas containing oxygen atoms.
