A semiconductor device includes an interlayer insulation film, an underlying line provided in the interlayer insulation film, a liner film overlying the interlayer insulation film, an interlayer insulation film overlying the liner film. The underlying line has a lower hole and the liner film and the interlayer insulation film have an upper hole communicating with the lower hole, and the lower hole is larger in diameter than the upper hole. The semiconductor device further includes a conductive film provided at an internal wall surface of the lower hole, a barrier metal provided along an internal wall surface of the upper hole, and a Cu film filling the upper and lower holes. The conductive film contains a substance identical to a substance of the barrier metal. A highly reliable semiconductor device can thus be obtained.

A semiconductor device includes an interlayer film formed over a semiconductor substrate. A groove is formed in the interlayer film. A wiring formed in the groove is a copper alloy including copper and a metal element. An oxide layer of the metal element is formed over the surface of the wiring. The oxide layer is formed in a first region along a grain boundary of a copper crystal and a second region surrounded by the grain boundary, over the surface of the wiring. The oxide layer formed in the first region has a thickness greater than that of the oxide layer formed in the second region.
