A novel semiconductor device is provided. The semiconductor device includes a transistor and a capacitor element; a first conductive layer; a first insulating layer over the first conductive layer; a second conductive layer over the first insulating layer; an opening passing through the first insulating layer and the second conductive layer and overlapping with the first conductive layer; a semiconductor layer including a region in contact with the first insulating layer, a region in contact with the first conductive layer, and a region in contact with the second conductive layer in the opening; a second insulating layer over the semiconductor layer; a third conductive layer over the second insulating layer; a third insulating layer over the third conductive layer; and a fourth conductive layer over the third insulating layer. The first conductive layer functions as one of a source electrode and a drain electrode of the transistor, and the second conductive layer functions as the other of the source electrode and the drain electrode of the transistor. The fourth conductive layer functions as one electrode of the capacitor element, and the third conductive layer functions as a gate electrode of the transistor and the other electrode of the capacitor element. The third insulating layer has ferroelectricity.
