Abstract
According to this invention, a semiconductor non-volatile memory device includes a semiconductor substrate, insulating films formed on the semiconductor substrate and having at least two types of gate insulating films having different thicknesses and a first conductive film formed on the insulating films and electrically floating from the semiconductor substrate through the insulating films. These at least two types of gate insulating films include a first insulating film formed on said semiconductor substrate and a first diffusion layer of a conductivity type and a second insulating film formed on said semiconductor substrate and a second diffusion layer, of the opposite conductivity type, which is isolated from the first diffusion layer. The first conductive film is formed on the first and second insulating films. A part of the first insulating film between the first conductive film and the first diffusion layer is constituted by a third insulating film having a thickness smaller than that of the first insulating film.
