Abstract
A process for manufacturing a semiconductor device having a buried electrically conductive film includes: a first step of, with heating at a first temperature a substrate on which an insulating film having a depression is formed, depositing a first copper film having a sufficient thickness for moderating a step defined by the depression, on a surface of the insulating film by a metal organic chemical vapor deposition method; and a second step of, with heating the substrate at a second temperature higher than the first temperature, depositing a second copper film having a sufficient thickness for filling the depression by a metal organic chemical vapor deposition method, wherein a buried electrically conductive layer composed of the first and second copper films is formed in the depression by the first and second steps.
