An interlayer insulating film (21) is formed on a substrate (1), and a polysilicon layer (10) is formed on the interlayer insulating film (21). An interlayer insulating film (22) is formed to cover the polysilicon layer (10), and a polysilicon layer (11) is formed on the interlayer insulating film (22). An interlayer insulating film (23) is formed to cover the interlayer insulating film (22). A hole (20M) for a mark to constitute an alignment mark or the like is formed from a surface (23S) of the interlayer insulating film (23) to the polysilicon layer (11). The hole (20M) for a mark is larger than a contact hole formed from the surface (23S) to the substrate (1) but is shallower than the contact hole. Consequently, a concave portion corresponding to the hole (20M) for a mark is formed, with difficulty, on a silicon oxide layer to be subjected to CMP polishing and then become an interlayer insulting film (4). Therefore, it is possible to prevent a slurry from remaining in the concave portion. Thus, it is possible to obtain a semiconductor device having high reliability without a disadvantage such as a wiring disconnection or the like which is caused by the remaining or scattering of the slurry to be used for a CMP method.

摘要:
In a semiconductor device having a bonding pad structure of a multilayered wiring structure comprising a first wiring layer and a second wiring layers which is located over the first wiring layer and an interlayer insulation layer between the wiring layers which has an electrically conductive component so as to electrically connect the wiring layers, the bonding pad structure is such that no crack is formed in the interlayer insulation layer during wire bonding. The bonding pad structure is so arranged that an area of the first wiring layer area is smaller than that of the second wiring layer or the first wiring layer is formed outside a bonding region of the second wiring layer under the second wiring layer.

摘要:
A first polycide lead, which is formed on a silicon substrate, consists of a first doped polysilicon layer and a first tungsten silicide layer that is formed on the first doped polysilicon layer. An interlayer insulating film, which is formed on the silicon substrate, has an opening that reaches the first doped polysilicon layer. A second polycide lead, which is formed on the interlayer insulating film, consists of a second doped polysilicon layer that is connected to the first polycide lead in the opening and a second tungsten silicide layer that is formed on the second doped polysilicon layer. In the opening, the first and second doped polysilicon layers are in contact with each other at the side surfaces of the first polycide lead.
