Abstract
A semiconductor device having a semiconductor substrate and a wiring layer, which is doped with an impurity, located on the substrate. The semiconductor device has upper and lower wiring layers apart from each other. An electric insulating film electrically insulates between the upper and lower wiring layers. The insulating film has a contact hole. A wiring material is packed with the contact hole to electrically connect the upper and lower wiring layers. The impurity is contained in the lower wiring layer to decrease its resistivity.
