Abstract

Technology for using a wiring of a superconductive material in semiconductor integrated circuit device. An isolation layer and/or a barrier layer are provided for preventing diffusion of harmful composition of the superconductive material for the semiconductor device. Control of a circuit can be made utilizing the characteristics of a superconductive material. Also, the characteristics of a superconductive material may be controlled. A method of forming a layer of superconductive material, well compatible with the widely used process of manufacturing integrated circuit devices, is also disclosed.
