1. A semiconductor device having a nonvolatile memory cell, comprising:
a plurality of first semiconductor layers each extending in a first direction and each configuring a channel region of the nonvolatile memory cell;
a pair of second semiconductor layers provided so as to sandwich the plurality of first semiconductor layers in the first direction, connected to the plurality of first semiconductor layers, and configuring a source region and a drain region of the nonvolatile memory cell;
a plurality of paraelectric films covering outer peripheries of the plurality of first semiconductor layers between the pair of second semiconductor layers, respectively;
a bottom electrode covering outer peripheries of the plurality of paraelectric films between the pair of second semiconductor layers;
a ferroelectric film formed on the bottom electrode; and
a top electrode formed on the ferroelectric film,
wherein a contact area between the bottom electrode and the ferroelectric film is smaller than a contact area between the bottom electrode and the plurality of paraelectric films.
