Abstract
A semiconductor memory device according to an embodiment includes a stacked body with electrode films and inter-electrode insulating films alternately stacked therein, a semiconductor member, a charge accumulation film, an insulating member and a floating electrode member. The semiconductor member is provided in the stacked body. The insulating member is provided at a position opposed to the inter-electrode insulating film on a side surface of the charge accumulation film. The insulating member is divided for each of the inter-electrode insulating films. The floating electrode member is provided on a region of the side surface of the charge accumulation film not covered with the insulating member. The floating electrode member is in contact with the charge accumulation film. The floating electrode member is divided for each of the electrode films. The floating electrode member has higher conductivity than the charge accumulation film.
