  • Patent number: 6864584
    Abstract: In extremely minute copper wiring the width or the thickness of which is equal to or shorter than approximately the double length of the mean free path of a copper atom, a value of the resistance may be larger, compared with aluminum wiring of the same extent and it is difficult to realize wiring having small resistance. To solve such a problem, aluminum wiring is used for wiring having form in which the respective resistivities ? of both wirings have the relation of ?Al<?Cu and copper wiring is used for wiring having form in which the respective resistivities ? of both wirings have the relation of ?Al??Cu. As a result, a semiconductor device which has small resistance, transmits a signal at high speed and is provided with a multilayer wiring layer can be realized.
