Abstract

A nonvolatile memory device and a method of programming the nonvolatile semiconductor memory device are disclosed. The programming method includes applying a first voltage greater than a ground voltage to a selected word line at a first time; applying a second voltage greater than the first voltage to the selected word line at a second time that occurs after a predetermined period from the first time; applying the ground voltage to a first unselected word line directly adjacent to the selected word line at the first time; and applying a third voltage greater than the ground voltage to the first unselected word line at the second time.
