Abstract

On a semiconductor film to function as a lead-out electrode of a semiconductor element, a metal silicide film and a metal nitride film are successively provided, whereby alloying and inferior contact resistances attributed to heat during wiring with aluminum can be effectively suppressed, so that the reliability of a semiconductor device can be enhanced.
