Abstract

A semiconductor device is provided. The semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate including a conducting layer, a first insulating film formed on the semiconductor substrate and having a via hole formed therein, a lower barrier film formed on an inside wall of the via hole, a first metal wiring formed on the lower barrier film, a second insulating film formed on the first metal wiring and the first insulating film, the second insulating film being provided with a trench which has a width greater than a width of the via hole, an upper barrier film formed on a lower surface of the trench, a second metal wiring formed on the upper barrier film, and a sidewall barrier film formed on sidewalls of the upper barrier film and the second metal wiring. The sidewall barrier film has an L-shaped mirror-symmetrical structure.
