Claim 9:
10. A semiconductor storage device comprising:
a plurality of first semiconductor layers disposed with respect to each other in a first direction, the plurality of first semiconductor layers each including regions disposed adjacent a first conductive layer and a second conductive layer, respectively;
a plurality of second semiconductor layers disposed with respect to each other in the first direction, each of the plurality of second semiconductor layers including a region disposed adjacent the second conductive layer and a third conductive layer, respectively, wherein the first to third conductive layers, each extending along the first direction, are disposed with respect to each other in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction;
a first insulating layer interposed between the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer, the first insulating layer being wider than the plurality of first semiconductor layers and the plurality of second semiconductor layers in the second direction;
a second insulating layer interposed between the second conductive layer and the third conductive layer, the second insulating layer being wider than the first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer in the second direction,
wherein a third one and a fourth one of the plurality of first semiconductor layers are provided as follows: the third semiconductor layer has a first width in the first direction; the third semiconductor layer and the first insulating layer are disposed apart from each other in the first direction with a first distance; the third semiconductor layer and the second insulating layer are disposed apart from each other in the first direction with a second distance; the fourth semiconductor layer has a second width in the first direction; the fourth semiconductor layer and the first insulating layer are separated apart from each other in the first direction with a third distance; and the fourth semiconductor layer and the second insulating layer are separated apart from each other in the first direction with a fourth distance, and
wherein a shorter one of the first distance and the second distance is shorter than a shorter one of the third distance and the fourth distance, and the first width is larger than the second width.
