Patent ID: 11682667

Abstract:
A semiconductor device with large memory capacity is provided.A semiconductor device includes first to fourth insulators, a first conductor, a second conductor, and a first semiconductor, and the first semiconductor includes a first surface and a second surface. A first side surface of the first conductor is included on the first surface of the first semiconductor, and a first side surface of the first insulator is included on a second side surface of the first conductor. The second insulator is included in a region including a second side surface and a top surface of the first insulator, a top surface of the first conductor, and the second surface of the first semiconductor. The third insulator is included on a formation surface of the second insulator, and the fourth insulator is included on a formation surface of the third insulator. The second conductor is included in a region overlapping the second surface of the first semiconductor in a region where the fourth insulator is formed. The third insulator has a function of accumulating charge. A tunnel current is induced between the second surface of the first semiconductor and the third insulator with the second insulator therebetween by supply of a potential to the second conductor.
