Abstract
A semiconductor device is disclosed. The semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate; a gate insulating film formed above the semiconductor substrate; a charge storage layer formed above the gate insulating film; a multilayered interelectrode insulating film formed in a first region above an upper surface portion of the element isolation insulating film, a second region above a sidewall portion of the charge storage layer and a third region above an upper surface portion of the charge storage layer, the interelectrode insulating film including a stack of an upper silicon oxide film, a middle silicon nitride film, and a lower silicon oxide film; a control gate electrode formed above the interelectrode insulating film; wherein the middle silicon nitride film is thinner in the third region than in the second region and the upper silicon oxide film is thicker in the third region than in the second region.
