Abstract

A method for the production of a semiconductor device in which wiring is formed in three dimensions by the use of interlevel insulators having a flat surface, which method comprises the steps of: applying first insulation material and hardening by heat treatment to form an insulating film made of the first material; etching the insulating film made of the first material in such a manner that only concave portions of an underlying layer are filled with an insulator made of the first material; and forming an insulating film made of a second material thereon, wherein the interlevel insulator is formed by repeating the steps for at least two times so as to have a plurality of the insulators made of the first material which are separated by the insulating films made of the second material.
