ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device having at least two layers formed on a semiconductor substrate includes a first dielectric layer formed on the semiconductor substrate; a first interconnection layer which is formed on the first dielectric layer and has a first interconnection pattern and a dummy pattern formed around the first interconnection pattern; a second dielectric layer formed on the first interconnection layer; and a second interconnection layer which is formed on the second dielectric layer and has a second interconnection pattern. The dummy pattern is placed in the vicinity of only an area where the first and second interconnection patterns are superposed on each other.
