Abstract

According to one embodiment, a nonvolatile memory device includes a first wire, a second wire and a nonvolatile memory cell. The first wire is formed to extend in a first direction, and the second wire is formed at height different from height of the first wire and to extend in a second direction. The nonvolatile memory cell is arranged to be held between the first wire and the second wire in a poison where the first wire and the second wire cross. The nonvolatile memory cell includes a nonvolatile storage layer and a current limiting resistance layer connected in series to the nonvolatile storage layer and having resistance of 1 kilo-ohm to 1 mega-ohm.
