There is provided a semiconductor device having high reliability, high
yield, and such a interconnection structure as short hardly occurs. The
semiconductor device comprises a semiconductor substrate, metal
conductors formed on a side of a main face of the substrate which metal
conductors contain aluminum as main constituent thereof and copper as an
additive element, the metal conductors being made to contain such an
element as to suppress the precipitation of copper or being made to have
such a film adjacent to the metal conductor as to suppress the
precipitation of copper.
