Abstract

The technical problem to be solved is to achieve high density with simple manufacturing process to decrease bit costs of memory.A semiconductor memory device according to a first aspect of the present invention includes a variable resistance material layer and a channel layer that are connected in series between a first diffusion layer and a metal wire, thereby separating the metal wire and a channel semiconductor layer.A semiconductor memory device according to a second aspect of the present invention includes a variable resistance material layer electrically connecting channel semiconductor layers opposed to each other in a first direction and electrically connecting channel semiconductor layers adjacent to each other in a second direction, wherein a plurality of the channel semiconductor layers is disposed in the second direction.
