Abstract
To restrict alloy formation between a hydrogen-absorbing layer of titanium or the like and an electrode of aluminum or the like, provided is a semiconductor device. The semiconductor device may include a semiconductor substrate. The semiconductor device may include a first layer that is formed above the semiconductor substrate. The first layer may contain a hydrogen-absorbing first metal. The semiconductor device may include a second layer that is formed above the first layer. The second layer may contain a second metal differing from the first metal. The semiconductor device may include an Si-containing layer that is formed between the first layer and the second layer and contains silicon. The second layer may further include silicon. The Si-containing layer may have a higher silicon concentration than the second layer. The second metal may be aluminum. The first metal may be titanium.
