ABSTRACT:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device according to embodiments includes forming an interlayer dielectric film with a damascene pattern over a semiconductor substrate having a lower metal wire. A seed layer may be formed over the interlayer dielectric film including the damascene pattern. Impurities generated during the formation of the seed layer be removed through an annealing process using H2. A copper wire may then be formed by filling the damascene pattern.
