A lower interconnection is provided on a semiconductor substrate. A MIM
capacitive element is provided on a first interlayer insulation film in
which the lower interconnection is buried, and includes a lower
electrode, an upper electrode, and a dielectric film sandwiched
therebetween. An upper interconnection is provided on a second interlayer
insulation film in which the MIM capacitive element is buried. A contact
electrically connects the lower electrode and the upper interconnection.
The lower electrode is mainly formed of Al, so that they are lower in
electrical resistance than barrier metal, and also low in stress value.
Therefore, it becomes possible to widen the area of the lower electrode
for electrically connecting the contact while restraining their
influences on charge accumulation and close contact between the lower
electrode and the insulation film. In addition, since the electrical
resistance is lowered, the thickness of the lower electrode can be
increased. Accordingly, the MIM capacitive element with a large
capacitance can be manufactured with a high yield.
