A nonvolatile semiconductor memory according to an example of the present
invention is provided with a memory cell having a floating gate electrode
and a control gate electrode, and a select gate transistor having a
select gate electrode and connected in series to the memory cell. A cell
unit is comprised with the memory cell and the select gate transistor. A
bird's beak of the edge at the memory cell side of the select gate
electrode is larger than a bird's beak of at least one edge of the
floating gate electrode.
