A reliable semiconductor device having a multilayer wiring structure
formed of copper as a main component material, which constrains
occurrence of voids caused by stress migration. In the multilayer wiring
structure, a first insulation layer having a high barrier property and a
compression stress, and making contact with the upper surface of a first
wiring made of copper as a main component material, a second insulation
film having a tensile stress, and a third insulation film having a
dielectric constant which is lower than those of the first and second
insulation film, are laminated one upon another in the mentioned order as
viewed the bottom thereof, and a via hole is formed piercing through the
first insulation film, the second insulation film and the third
insulation film, making contact with the first wiring.
