Abstract
According to one embodiment, a semiconductor device includes a foundation layer, a stacked body provided on the foundation layer, the stacked body including a plurality of electrode layers stacked with an insulator interposed, a semiconductor body extending through the stacked body in a stacking direction of the stacked body, and a charge storage portion provided between the semiconductor body and the electrode layers. The semiconductor body includes a first semiconductor film, and a second semiconductor film provided between the first semiconductor film and the charge storage portion. An average grain size of a crystal of the second semiconductor film is larger than an average grain size of a crystal of the first semiconductor film.
