Abstract
It is an object to solve inhibition of miniaturization of an element and complexity of a manufacturing process thereof. It is another object to provide a nonvolatile memory device and a semiconductor device having the memory device, in which data can be additionally written at a time besides the manufacturing time and in which forgery caused by rewriting of data can be prevented. It is further another object to provide an inexpensive nonvolatile memory device and semiconductor device. A memory element is manufactured in which a first conductive layer, a second conductive layer that is beside the first conductive layer, and conductive fine particles of each surface which is covered with an organic film are deposited over an insulating film. The conductive fine particles are deposited between the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer.
