Problems solved by technology

[0015] In the conventional memory element manufactured as above, the characteristic degradation in the repeated test of data rewriting is remarkable.
In particular, in the high-temperature storage test (data retention test) performed after the repeated rewrite test, the defect that "0" data (the state of accumulating negative charge on the floating gate electrode) becomes "1" data occurs, and the guaranteed number of rewrites is increased. become difficult

Embodiment approach 1

[0048] In Embodiment 1, Al is used as a layer for trapping hydrogen or a layer for suppressing hydrogen diffusion 2 o 3 (aluminum oxide) film, the Al is formed on the upper layer of the memory element 2 o 3 membrane.

[0049] exist figure 1 In (a), a cross-sectional view of the nonvolatile semiconductor memory device according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention is shown. figure 1 (b) show relative figure 1 (a) Cross-sectional view of the nonvolatile semiconductor memory device in the vertical direction. Hereinafter, the structure of the nonvolatile semiconductor memory device according to Embodiment 1 will be described.

[0050] like figure 1 As shown in (a) and (b), in the nonvolatile semiconductor memory device according to Embodiment 1, Al is formed as a layer that traps hydrogen or a layer that suppresses hydrogen diffusion on the upper layer of the memory element. 2 o 3 Film 10. Then, the Al 2 o 3 The film 10 is located between the memory element and...

Embodiment approach 2

[0075] Embodiment 2, forming Al 2 o 3 The position of the film is different from Embodiment 1, and the Al 2 o 3 A film is formed on the memory element.

[0076] Figure 8 (a) is a cross-sectional view showing a nonvolatile semiconductor memory device according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. Figure 8 (b) is to show relative Figure 8 (a) Cross-sectional view of the nonvolatile semiconductor memory device in the vertical direction. Hereinafter, the structure of the nonvolatile semiconductor memory device according to Embodiment 2 will be described.

[0077] like Figure 8 As shown in (a) and (b), in the nonvolatile semiconductor memory device of Embodiment 2, the difference from Embodiment 1 is that Al 2 o 3 The film 10 is formed on the third silicon oxide film 23 . Then, as in Embodiment 1, Al 2 o 3 The film 10 is located between the memory element and the second metal layer 32 . The description of other structures is omitted because they are the same a...

Embodiment approach 3

[0089] Embodiment 3, forming Al 2 o 3 The position of the film is different from Embodiment 1, the Al 2 o 3 The film is formed on the silicon oxide film on the upper wiring.
