Abstract

See full text

A nonvolatile semiconductor memory apparatus according to an embodiment includes: a semiconductor layer; a first insulating film formed on the semiconductor layer, the first insulating film being a single-layer film containing silicon oxide or silicon oxynitride; a charge trapping film formed on the first insulating film; a second insulating film formed on the charge trapping film; and a control gate electrode formed on the second insulating film. A metal oxide exists in an interface between the first insulating film and the charge trapping film, the metal oxide comprises material which is selected from the group of Al2O3, HfO2, ZrO2, TiO2, and MgO, the material is stoichiometric composition, and the charge trapping film includes material different from the material of the metal oxide.
