Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

According to one embodiment, a semiconductor device having an interlayer insulating film, a molybdenum containing layer, a barrier metal layer and a plug material layer is provided. The interlayer insulating film is formed on a substrate or on a conductive layer formed on a substrate. The interlayer insulating film has a hole reaching the substrate or the conductive layer. The molybdenum containing layer is formed in the substrate or in the conductive layer at a bottom portion of the hole. The barrier metal layer is formed on the molybdenum containing layer and on a side surface of the hole. A portion of the barrier metal layer is formed on the side surface contains at least molybdenum. A portion of the barrier metal layer is formed on the molybdenum containing layer includes at least a molybdenum silicate nitride film. The plug material layer is formed via the barrier metal layer.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A semiconductor device comprising: a substrate; and a laminated body formed on the substrate and serves as an interconnection or an electrode, wherein the laminated body includes a semiconductor layer containing silicon which is formed as a first wiring material or an electrode material above the substrate, a barrier metal layer which is formed on the semiconductor layer and contains molybdenum, and a metal layer which is formed on the barrier metal…
