Abstract
The present invention is a semiconductor device having a plurality of wiring on a semiconductor substrate. It is provided with a first insulating film which covers the surface of all the aforesaid wiring, and a second insulating film containing air gaps which is formed between such of the aforesaid wiring as is mutually adjacent. The method of manufacturing the semiconductor device to which the present invention pertains comprises a process whereby the first insulating film is formed in such a manner as to cover the surface of the plurality of wiring formed on the semiconductor substrate, and a process whereby the second insulating film containing air gaps is formed between such of the wiring on the aforesaid substrate as is mutually adjacent. Here, the first insulating film is formed by means of the plasma CVD or spin coating methods, the second by means of the plasma CVD, spin coating, bias CVD, sputtering or similar methods.
