摘要:
It is possible to reduce resistance variations of a member connecting a through-silicon via to a line and improve wiring reliability. A hole through which the through-silicon via is to be stretched is created and an over-etching process is carried out on a wiring layer including the line. Then, by embedding copper in the hole, the through-silicon via made of the copper can be created. After the through-silicon via has been connected to the line made of aluminum through the member which is a connection area, the connection area is alloyed in a thermal treatment in order to electrically connect the through-silicon via to the line. Thus, it is possible to reduce variations of a resistance between the through-silicon via and the line and also improve wiring reliability as well. The present technology can be applied to a semiconductor device and a method for manufacturing the semiconductor device.

A method is provided for designing an integrated circuit having an interconnect structure with a reduced lateral dimension relative to a pre-existing interconnect structure layout. The method begins by reducing in scale by a desired amount the lateral dimension of a given level of metallization in the pre-existing interconnect structure layout by reducing the width of each conductive line in the given level of metallization to a prescribed width. The conductive lines are separated by dielectric material. The given level of metallization in the interconnect structure layout is divided into at least first and second levels of metallization by arranging in the second level of metallization alternating lines from the given level. The prescribed width in the lateral direction of each line is increased in the first and second levels of metallization by a factor of at least two. The layout of lines in the second level of metallization is arranged so that they partially overlap in the vertical direction one of the lines in the first level of metallization.

An image display system for display image information obtained by accessing an image data base or the like which was stored in an electronic filing device. The system has: an electronic filing device to store a plurality of pieces of information; a plurality of terminal devices; a common image information memory such as a video RAM to store the image information read out of the electronic filing device on the basis of an instruction from at least one of the terminal devices; and a distributor to distribute and transfer the image information stored in the VRAM to any or all of the terminal devices in accordance with an image transfer instruction from such terminal device(s). A ferroelectric liquid crystal or other display panel which can hold the image information for a predetermined time may be used as a display. The display information can be individually effectively accessed from the electronic filing device by each terminal device while commonly using a single VRAM.
