To suppress deterioration in reliability of wiring and to reduce effective dielectric constant of wiring. In a semiconductor device, copper-containing wirings are covered by barrier insulating films, and the barrier insulating films contain a component of an organic silica containing unsaturated hydrocarbon and amorphous carbon. The copper-containing wirings are covered by the barrier insulating films that contain a component that is in an organic silica structure containing unsaturated hydrocarbon and amorphous carbon. Accordingly, inter-wiring capacitance is reduced without deteriorating reliability of the copper-containing wiring, thereby realizing a high-speed LSI with low power consumption.

A semiconductor device includes a first interconnection layer and a interlayer insulating layer. The first interconnection layer is formed on a upper side of a substrate, and includes a first interconnection. The interlayer insulating layer is formed on the first interconnection layer, and includes a via connected with the first interconnection at one end of the via and a second interconnection connected with the via at another end of the via. The interlayer insulating layer has a relative dielectric constant lower than that of a silicon oxide film. An upper portion of the interlayer insulating layer includes a silicon-oxide film, a silicon nitride film and a silicon oxide film in order from a lower portion.

An insulated organic copolymer is provided, having the excellent mechanical strength and deposition property at an interface contacting the lower base or the upper layer of the inorganic insulation film, and the effective dielectric constant is low as the whole film, which is suitable as the interlayer insulation film that separates the multi-layer copper wirings of the semiconductor device. The organosiloxane copolymer film is obtained by the polymerization of the cyclosiloxane and the straight-chain siloxane as the raw materials by the plasma excitation of both. At the interfaces contacting the inorganic insulation films, the interface layers having a film quality that is intricate and excellent in deposition property are prepared whereby the main component of the film composition is the straight-chain siloxane. The inner section of the copolymer film mixes the cyclosiloxane component having pores surrounded by the cyclosiloxane backbone and the straight-chain siloxane components, has the network structure layer relatively suppressing the density, and has the composition changing in the thickness direction whereby the multi-layer wirings embedding the copper thin film is formed.

A semiconductor disk wherein a flash memory into which data is rewritten in block unit is employed as a storage medium, the semiconductor disk including a data memory in which file data are stored, a substitutive memory which substitutes for blocks of errors in the data memory, an error memory in which error information of the data memory are stored, and a memory controller which reads data out of, writes data into and erases data from the data memory, the substitutive memory and the error memory. Since the write errors of the flash memory can be remedied, the service life of the semiconductor disk can be increased.
摘要:
A multilayer wiring structure for connecting a semiconductor device is disclosed which is obtained by forming metal wirings on a substrate in which the semiconductor device is formed. The wiring structure free from such conventional problems that insulation between wirings next to each other is damaged or insulation resistance between wirings next to each other is deteriorated by generation of leakage current when fine metal wirings are formed in a porous insulating film. A method for producing such a wiring structure is also disclosed. In the metal wiring structure on the substrate in which the semiconductor device is formed, a insulating barrier layer (413) containing an organic matter is formed between an interlayer insulating film and a metal wiring. This insulating barrier layer reduces leakage current between wirings next to each other, thereby improving insulation reliability.
