An object of the present invention is to increase adhesiveness between thin films, particularly a high molecular film formed on an insulating surface, and the present invention provides a semiconductor device with high reliability and a method for manufacturing the semiconductor device with high yield. A semiconductor device of the present invention comprises a laminate structure formed in close contact with an organic insulating film on a hydrophobic surface of an inorganic insulating film including silicon and nitrogen. A film having the hydrophobic surface is an insulating film having a contact angle of water of equal to or more than 30&#xb0;, preferably of equal to or more than 40&#xb0;.

Semiconductor device and method for manufacturing the same

It is required that a line width of a wiring is prevented from being wider to be miniaturized when the wiring or the like is formed by a dropping method typified by an ink-jetting method. The invention provides a method for narrowing (miniaturizing) a line width according to a method different from a conventional method. One feature of the invention is that a plasma treatment is performed before forming a wiring or the like by a dropping method typified by an ink-jetting method. As the result of the plasma treatment, a surface for forming a conductive film is modified to be liquid-repellent. Consequently, a wiring or the like formed by a dropping method can be miniaturized.

It is required that a line width of a wiring is prevented from being wider to be miniaturized when the wiring or the like is formed by a dropping method typified by an ink-jetting method. Therefore, the invention provides a method for narrowing (miniaturizing) the line width according to a method different from a conventional method. A region to be liquid-repellent is formed and further, a region to be lyophilic is formed selectively in the region to be liquid-repellent in a surface for forming a pattern, before forming a desired pattern. After that, a pattern for a wiring or the like is formed in the lyophilic region by a dropping method typified by an ink-jetting method for dropping a composition including a conductive material for the wiring or the like.
