Abstract
The close-packed plane of a single crystal forming an electrode line such as electrodes or lines of a semiconductor device whose active regions are reduced in size, i.e., highly integrated, is arranged parallel to the longitudinal direction of the line; or in the case of a polycrystalline electrode line, the angle formed between the normal line direction of the close-packed plane of its crystal grains and that of the electrode line is arranged to be 80.degree. or less.
