Provided is an intermetallic dielectric layer structure of a silicon-on-insulator device, comprising a silicon-rich oxide layer (54) covering a metal interconnect, a fluorine-silicon glass layer on the silicon-rich oxide layer, and a non-doped silicate glass layer on the fluorine-silicon glass layer; the thickness of the silicon-rich oxide layer (54) is 700 angstroms ±10%; the silicon-rich oxide layer having a greater thickness captures movable ions on an unsaturated bond, such that it is difficult for the movable ions to pass through the silicon-rich oxide layer, thus blocking the movable ions. The present invention has good performance in an integrity evaluation of the gate oxide layer, and avoids damage to the device caused by the aggregation of movable ions at an interface. Also provided are a silicon-on-insulator device and a method of manufacturing the intermetallic dielectric layer of the silicon-on-insulator device.

An object of the present invention is to provide a semiconductor device including an insulating layer with a high dielectric strength voltage, a low dielectric constant, and low hygroscopicity. Another object of the present invention is to provide an electronic appliance with high performance and high reliability, which uses the semiconductor device. An insulator containing nitrogen, such as silicon oxynitride or silicon nitride oxide, and an insulator containing nitrogen and fluorine, such as silicon oxynitride added with fluorine or silicon nitride oxide added with fluorine, are alternately deposited so that an insulating layer is formed. By sandwiching an insulator containing nitrogen and fluorine between insulators containing nitrogen, the insulator containing nitrogen and fluorine can be prevented from absorbing moisture and thus a dielectric strength voltage can be increased. Further, an insulator contains fluorine so that a dielectric constant can be reduced.
