Each of the memory blocks includes: a first conductive layer expanding in parallel to the substrate over the first area, n layers of the first conductive layers being formed in a lamination direction and shared by the plurality of memory strings; a first semiconductor layer; and an electric charge accumulation layer. The memory strings are arranged with m columns in a second direction for each of the memory blocks. The wiring layers are arranged in the second direction, formed to extend to the vicinity of one end of the first conductive layer in the first direction from one side of the memory block, and connected via contact plugs to the first conductive layers. A relation represented by (Formula 1) is satisfied: (Formula 1) m>=n

A laminated body is formed by alternately laminating a plurality of dielectric films and electrode films on a silicon substrate. Next, a through hole extending in the lamination direction is formed in the laminated body. Next, a selective nitridation process is performed to selectively form a charge layer made of silicon nitride in a region of an inner surface of the through hole corresponding to the electrode film. Next, a high-pressure oxidation process is performed to form a block layer made of silicon oxide between the charge layer and the electrode film. Next, a tunnel layer made of silicon oxide is formed on an inner side surface of the through hole. Thus, a flash memory can be manufactured in which the charge layer is split for each electrode film.

A non-volatile semiconductor storage device has a plurality of memory strings to each of which a plurality of electrically rewritable memory cells are connected in series. Each of the memory strings includes first semiconductor layers each having a pair of columnar portions extending in a vertical direction with respect to a substrate and a coupling portion formed to couple the lower ends of the pair of columnar portions; a charge storage layer formed to surround the side surfaces of the columnar portions; and first conductive layers formed to surround the side surfaces of the columnar portions and the charge storage layer. The first conductive layers function as gate electrodes of the memory cells.
