Abstract
It is desirable to prevent breakage and separation of wiring of a semiconductor integrated circuit device, such as a bit-line of a DRAM. To accomplish this, an HDP silicone oxide film is deposited on a bit-line that is connected to the source and drain region of a memory cell selection MISFET of a DRAM memory cell by means of a high density plasma CVD technique, and the structure is subjected to RTA (heat treatment) at 750° C. The surface is polished, and then a capacitor to be connected to the other of the source and drain region of the memory cell selection MISFET is formed. As a result, even when a tantalum oxide film, that serves as a capacitance insulating film of the capacitor, is subjected to heat treatment, the film stress exerted on the bit-line is reduced, and breakage and separation of the bit-line are prevented.
