    摘要: A non-volatile semiconductor storage device has a memory string including a plurality of electrically rewritable memory cells connected in series. The non-volatile semiconductor storage device also has a protruding layer formed to protrude upward with respect to a substrate. The memory string includes: a plurality of first conductive layers laminated on the substrate; a first semiconductor layer formed to penetrate the plurality of first conductive layers; and an electric charge storage layer formed between the first conductive layers and the first semiconductor layer, and configured to be able to store electric charges. Each of the plurality of first conductive layers includes: a bottom portion extending in parallel to the substrate; and a side portion extending upward with respect to the substrate along the protruding layer at the bottom portion. The protruding layer has a width in a first direction parallel to the substrate that is less than or equal to its length in a lamination direction.

    摘要: A non-volatile semiconductor storage device has a plurality of memory strings with a plurality of electrically rewritable memory cells connected in series. Each of the memory strings includes: a columnar semiconductor layer extending in a direction perpendicular to a substrate; a plurality of conductive layers formed at a sidewall of the columnar semiconductor layer via memory layers; and interlayer insulation layers formed above of below the conductive layers. A sidewall of the conductive layers facing the columnar semiconductor layer is formed to be inclined such that the distance thereof from a central axis of the columnar semiconductor layer becomes larger at lower position thereof than at upper position thereof. While, a sidewall of the interlayer insulation layers facing the columnar semiconductor layer is formed to be inclined such that the distance thereof from a central axis of the columnar semiconductor layer becomes smaller at lower position thereof than at upper position thereof.
