Abstract

See full text

According to one embodiment, a method of manufacturing a nonvolatile semiconductor memory device is provided. In the method, a conductive film serving as a control gate is formed above a substrate. A hole extending through the conductive film from its upper surface to its lower surface is formed. A block insulating film, a charge storage layer, a tunnel insulating film, and a semiconductor layer are formed on the inner surface of the hole. A film containing a material having an oxygen dissociation catalytic action is formed on the semiconductor layer not to fill the hole. The interface between the tunnel insulating film and the semiconductor layer is oxidized through the film from the inside of the hole.
