Abstract
According to one embodiment, a semiconductor device includes a foundation layer, a stacked body provided above the foundation layer, a columnar portion, a hole, and a sealing film. The stacked body includes a plurality of conductive layers stacked with an air gap interposed. The columnar portion includes a semiconductor body. The semiconductor body extends in a stacking direction of the stacked body through the stacked body and contacts the foundation layer. The hole extends in the stacking direction through the stacked body and forms a cavity communicating with the air gap. The sealing film plugs an upper end of the hole forming the cavity.
