Abstract
An improvement is achieved in the reliability of a semiconductor device. Over a semiconductor substrate, an interlayer insulating film is formed and, over the interlayer insulating film, a pad is formed. Over the interlayer insulating film, an insulating film is formed so as to cover the pad. In the insulating film, an opening is formed to expose a part of the pad. The pad is a pad to which a copper wire is to be electrically coupled and which includes an Al-containing conductive film containing aluminum as a main component. Over the Al-containing conductive film in a region overlapping the opening in plan view, a laminated film including a barrier conductor film, and a metal film over the barrier conductor film is formed. The metal film is in an uppermost layer. The barrier conductor film is a single-layer film or a laminated film including one or more layers of films selected from the group consisting of a Ti film, a TiN film, a Ta film, a TaN film, a W film, a WN film, a TiW film, and a TaW film. The metal film is made of one or more metals selected from the group consisting of Pd, Au, Ru, Rh, Pt, and Ir.
