Nonvolatile semiconductor memory device

Abstract

Disclosed herein is a nonvolatile semiconductor memory device containing a semiconductor layer, a block insulating layer, an organic molecular layer which is formed between the semiconductor layer and the block insulating layer, and a control gate electrode formed on the block insulating layer. The organic molecular layer contains first organic molecules and second organic molecules, such that the first organic molecule has a first alkyl chain or a first alkyl halide chain on the semiconductor layer side and a charge trapping unit on the block insulating layer side, and the second organic molecule has a second alkyl chain or a second alkyl halide chain on the semiconductor layer side and a hydroxy group, an ether group, a carboxyl group or an ester group on the block insulating layer side.
