A multiple tunnel insulation layer with a plurality of layers, a charge storage insulation layer, and a multiple blocking insulation layer with layers are sequentially stacked between the gate electrode and the tunnel insulating layer.

A minimum field at a blocking insulation layer can be stronger than at a tunnel insulation layer, and the migration probability of charges through the tunnel insulation layer can be higher than through the blocking insulation layer.
