ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device comprises a first insulating film formed on a semiconductor substrate, a first metal pattern formed on the first insulating film, a second insulating film formed on the first metal pattern, a second metal pattern formed on the second insulating film, and a third metal pattern formed in the second insulating film and connecting between the first metal pattern and the second metal pattern. The third metal pattern is a single continuous structure, and the principal orientation axes of crystals of a metal constituting the third metal pattern are parallel to the principal surface of the semiconductor substrate.
