ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device has a semiconductor substrate, a first interconnect made of a copper-containing metal which is formed over the semiconductor substrate, a conductive first plug formed over the first interconnect and connected to the first interconnect, a Cu silicide layer over the first interconnect in an area other than the area where the first plug is formed, a Cu silicide layer over the first plug, and a first porous MSQ film formed over an area from the side surface of the first interconnect to the side surface of the first plug and covering the side surface of the first interconnect, the upper portion of the first interconnect and the side surface of the first plug.
