    摘要: A metal layer (7), a metallic compound layer (8) and a metal layer (9) are stacked in this order when viewed from the side of a first copper interconnect line (2) and an interlayer insulating film (5) to constitute a second conductive barrier layer (20). As the material for the metal layers (7) and (9), an element having an atomic weight higher than that of copper such as tungsten (W) or tantalum (Ta) is applicable. A second copper interconnect line (6) is conductively connected to the first copper interconnect line (2) at a contact hole (12) through the second conductive barrier layer (20). As the ratio of the volume of the second copper interconnect line (6) at the region for filling a trench (11) to the volume of the second copper interconnect line (6) at the region for filling the contact hole (12) increases, tensile stress to be concentrated at the contact hole (12) becomes greater. As a result, a void is likely to be generated in the contact hole (12). In view of this, in order to improve the adhesion especially between the second copper interconnect line (6) at the region for filling the contact hole (12) and the second conductive barrier layer (20), the metal layer (9) is provided.

    摘要: A main electrode is connected to an n-type semiconductor layer selectively formed on a major surface of a silicon substrate. A silicide layer is interposed between the main electrode and the semiconductor layer. The silicide layer is heat-treated at 600° C. to 850° C. for at least 30 minutes, to have an epitaxial layer selectively epitaxially growing in a specific direction such as the direction toward the semiconductor layer. Therefore, irregularities are formed on the interface between the suicide layer and the semiconductor layer. The interface resistivity between the silicide layer and the semiconductor layer is low due to the presence of the epitaxial layer, and besides the contact area of the interface is large due to the irregularities of the interface. Consequently, the contact resistance between the main electrode and the semiconductor layer is effectively reduced. Thus, the contact resistance between the main electrode and the semiconductor substrate is reduced.
