A semiconductor device manufacturing method includes the steps of: forming first and second insulation films on a substrate provided with a first wiring; sequentially forming first to third mask layers on the second insulation film; forming a wiring groove pattern in the third mask layer; selectively processing the third mask layer, formed to project into the inside of the wiring groove pattern, into a tapered shape; forming a contact hole pattern in the second and first mask layer, and removing the tapered shape portions of the third mask layer; and forming wiring grooves in the second insulation film by etching using the third mask layer, and forming contact holes in the insulation film by etching using the second and first mask layers.

The present invention provides a semiconductor device having a multilayer wiring structure including a lower Cu buried-wiring layer, a SiC film, a SiOC film of 400 nm in thickness functioning as an interlayer insulating film, and an upper Cu buried-wiring layer electrically connected to the lower buried-wiring layer through contact plugs passing through the interlayer insulating film. The contact plugs and the upper Cu buried wiring layer are formed a single burying step of the dual damascene process. The SiOC film has a carbon content of about 12 atomic % and a relative dielectric constant of about 3.0. The upper Cu buried wiring layer is formed by burying a Cu film, through a barrier metal, in wiring grooves which are provided in the inter-wiring insulating film including a laminated film of an organic film, e.g., a PAE film of 200 nm in thickness, and a SiOC film of 150 nm in thickness.

Disclosed herein is a production method of a semiconductor device having multilayer interconnections of well-formed dual damascene structure in the low dielectric constant interlayer insulating film. The method includes a step of forming on an underlayer wiring a first insulating film, a second insulating, and first mask forming layer; a step of forming a first resist mask (20) having an inverted pattern of wiring trenches for the upper wiring; a step of etching the first mask forming layer through the first resist mask, thereby forming in the first mask forming layer a concave part conforming to the inverted pattern of wiring trenches for the upper wiring, and then forming on the first mask forming layer a second mask forming layer, thereby filling the concave part with the second mask forming layer; a step of selectively removing the second mask forming layer on the region in which the wiring trench is formed, thereby forming the second mask having the wiring trench pattern; a step of forming on the first mask forming layer a second resist mask (12) having an opening pattern of the via holes; a step of etching the first mask forming layer and the second insulating film through the second resist mask, thereby forming the via holes. This process is followed by the ordinary procedure to form the dual damascene structure.

During liquid chemical cleaning treatment, leaching of buried plugs occurs from a portion where the buried plugs are exposed locally to result in increase of resistance, lowering of electric conduction yield, lowering of device yield and deterioration of reliability. In a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device by forming upper layer interconnections on buried plugs formed in an interlayer insulating film, the upper layer interconnections are formed by patterning using etching and then plasma processing using an oxygen series gas with addition of a fluorine series gas is applied to the surface of the buried plugs formed being extended out of the upper layer interconnections, before removing the resist film 19 used as an etching mask at least by the organic stripping liquid, thereby forming a protection film on the surface of the buried plugs.
