Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate, an insulating film formed above the semiconductor substrate, a wiring having copper as a main component and formed above the insulating film, and a barrier metal film having a higher modulus of rigidity than copper and interposed between the insulating film and the wiring. The barrier metal film may have a lower thermal expansion coefficient than copper.
