A semiconductor device includes a plurality of nonvolatile memory cells (1). Each of the nonvolatile memory cells comprises a MOS type first transistor section (3) used for information storage, and a MOS type second transistor section (4) which selects the first transistor section. The second transistor section has a bit line electrode (16) connected to a bit line, and a control gate electrode (18) connected to a control gate control line. The first transistor section has a source line electrode (10) connected to a source line, a memory gate electrode (14) connected to a memory gate control line, and a charge storage region (11) disposed directly below the memory gate electrode. A gate withstand voltage of the second transistor section is lower than that of the first transistor section. Assuming that the thickness of a gate insulating film of the second transistor section is defined as tc and the thickness of a gate insulating film of the first transistor section is defined as tm, they have a relationship of tc

A multi-storage nonvolatile memory of high density, high speed and high reliability has a memory transistor and switch transistors disposed on both the sides of the memory transistor. The memory transistor includes a gate insulating film having discrete traps and a memory gate electrode, whereas the switch transistors include switch gate electrodes. The gate insulating film has the discrete traps for storing information charge, can locally inject carriers, and one memory cell constitutes a multi-storage cell for storing at least information of 2 bits. The switch transistors having the switch gate electrodes realize source side injection. The memory transistor is fommed together with the switch transistors in self-aligned diffusion. The memory gate electrode of the memory transistor is connected to a word line so as to perform word-line erase.

An interband single-electron tunnel transistor utilizes an interband single-electron tunneling phenomenon between a valence band and a conduction band through a p-n junction. The transistor includes the combination of microcapacities as fundamental constituent elements each formed by joining a p-type semiconductor material doped with an impurity in the degree of concentration with which a Fermi level overlaps a valence band and an n-type semiconductor material doped with an impurity in the degree of concentration with which the Fermi level overlaps a conduction band. The microcapacity includes a p-n junction having a junction area with which interband electron tunneling is inhibited due to Coulomb blockade.
