Abstract

Multi-layer film including a silicon oxide film formed by the CVD method and a film having a gettering function is used as a layer insulation film in a semiconductor device having a resistance constituted by polycrystalline silicon, so that an impurity is not introduced into a resistance element formed in the (intrinsic) polycrystalline silicon, which is thereby stabilized, resulting in an improved characteristic of the semiconductor device. A third layer, of Spin on Glass, can be formed on the film having a gettering function so as to improve the flatness of the layer insulation film.
