    摘要: An integrated circuit using conductive interconnects made of aluminum or a material consisting chiefly of aluminum. Defects due to hillocks and whiskers are prevented. The integrated circuit is composed of TFTs. Gate interconnects are made of aluminum. Before a metallization film for forming the gate interconnects is patterned, slits are formed in locations where crosstalks and shorts are likely to occur by generation of hillocks and whiskers. The surfaces inside the slits are anodized. The conductive interconnects are formed, using the locations provided with the slits. In this way, during the anodization, unwanted stress is prevented. Furthermore, it is unlikely that a required electric current cannot be supplied for the anodization because of excessive complexity of the interconnection pattern.
