Abstract

A nonvolatile semiconductor memory device is formed in which data in the form of electrons trapped in the silicon layers directly on the source and the drain respectively can hardly be lost or replaced with other data. The semiconductor device has a memory transistor includes a drain and a source, an insulating layer, and a gate electrode. The drain and the source are formed in an upper region of a semiconductor substrate. The insulating layer, which has an area interrupting the electron migration arranged in a particular region thereof between the drain and the source for interrupting the electron migration, is formed between the drain and the source. In addition, the gate electrode is formed on the insulating layer.
