摘要： A multilayer body is formed by alternately stacking electrode films serving as control gates and dielectric films in a direction orthogonal to an upper surface of a silicon substrate. Trenches extending in the word line direction are formed in the multilayer body and a memory film is formed on an inner surface of the trench. Subsequently, a silicon body is buried inside the trench, and a charge storage film and the silicon body are divided in the word line direction to form silicon pillars. This simplifies the configuration of memory cells in the bit line direction, and hence can shorten the arrangement pitch of the silicon pillars, decreasing the area per memory cell.

摘要翻译： 通过在与硅衬底的上表面正交的方向上交替堆叠用作控制栅极和电介质膜的电极膜来形成多层体。 在多层体中形成在字线方向上延伸的沟槽，并且在沟槽的内表面上形成记忆膜。 随后，将硅体埋在沟槽内，并且电荷存储膜和硅体在字线方向上分开以形成硅柱。 这简化了位线方向上的存储单元的配置，因此可以缩短硅柱的排列间距，减小每个存储单元的面积。
