Abstract
In order to improve the degree of storage data integration, side walls (32) are selectively formed on side surfaces of word lines (22) to serve as masks for changing ON-state current values of memory cells by changing widths or lengths of active regions (24) of the memory cells, thereby forming a plurality of types of memory cells having different electrical properties. Thus, storage data per memory cell is so multivalued that the number of memory cells is reduced.
