Abstract
A semiconductor device includes variable resistance elements on a semiconductor substrate. Each of the variable resistance elements includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and a variable resistance layer that is sandwiched between the first electrode and the second electrode and that stores a resistance value that is continuously variable. The variable resistance layer includes a filament whose shape differs according to a neural network weight, and stores, as an analog value, the resistance value that is variable.
