Abstract
A semiconductor device structure is provided. The semiconductor device structure includes a transistor over a substrate. The semiconductor device structure includes a dielectric structure over the substrate and covering the transistor. The semiconductor device structure includes a contact structure passing through the dielectric structure and electrically connected to the transistor. The contact structure includes a contact layer, a first barrier layer, and a second barrier layer, the first barrier layer surrounds the contact layer, the second barrier layer surrounds a first upper portion of the first barrier layer, a first lower portion of the first barrier layer is in direct contact with the dielectric structure, and a thickness of the first lower portion increases toward the substrate.
