Abstract
A method for forming a semiconductor device includes providing a semiconductor substrate, forming an insulating film having a opening, forming a titanium film so as to extend from the semiconductor substrate in the opening to the insulating film surface, plasma treating the titanium film with a mixed gas of hydrogen and nitrogen; and forming a titanium nitride on the titanium film. Accordingly, the method can decrease a contact resistance of the tungsten interconnection in a contact hole.
