A seal ring is provided between a region where a circuit is formed on a semiconductor substrate and a dicing region. The seal ring has a portion where sealing layers of which the cross sectional form is in T-shape are layered and a portion where sealing layers of which the cross sectional form is rectangular are layered.

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.

A wire width and a wiring space of each of signal wires 1 and ground/power wires 2 are determined to be a wire width W1 (the minimum wire width) and a wiring space S1, respectively. A wire width and a wiring space of the via-hole neighboring region 1a or 2a are determined to be a wire width W2 (>W1) and a wiring space S2 (

摘要:
A semiconductor device comprising conductors electrically connected through a contact hole interlayer insulation layer with a trilayer barrier layer comprising a titanium silicide layer, titanium silicide layer formed on the titanium silicide by collimation sputtering, and a thermally nitrided titanium formed on the titanium nitride layer. The use of a trilayer barrier layer enables through the capacity of the collimation sputtering apparatus to be increased, prevents particles from occurring, and formation of a low resistance electrical connection between conductors, in addition to preventing diffusion from the titanium nitride layer and the second titanium layer to the thermally nitrided titanium layer, and between conductors.
