A semiconductor device including a fluorine diffusion barrier layer and a
method for manufacturing the same are provided. The semiconductor device
includes a specific pattern formed over a semiconductor substrate, a
fluorine diffusion barrier layer formed over the specific pattern, and an
interlayer insulating layer containing fluorine formed over the fluorine
diffusion barrier layer. The fluorine diffusion barrier layer may be used
to essentially prevent fluorine from being diffused into a specific
pattern formed of a metal or tetra-ethyl-ortho-silicate (TEOS) layer and
thus to prevent corrosion and void formation that might otherwise be
caused by HF.
