To provide a semiconductor memory device comprising flash memory cells having higher writing speed, the semiconductor memory of the present invention comprises memory cells each having a channel region, an n-type drain region and an n-type source region that are disposed on both sides of the channel region, a floating gate formed over the channel region via a first oxide film and a control gate formed over the floating gate via a second oxide film, which are formed on a p-type Si substrate, wherein the floating gate includes of a first region located over the channel region via the first oxide film and a second region that is formed to be wider than the first region and is capacitively coupled with the control gate via the second oxide film, the floating gate having T-shaped longitudinal section, wherein a height of the first region is set so that the floating gate has the maximum potential when a control voltage is applied to the control gate.
