The CMP technology is provided for a damascene wiring structure having a
plural-layer wiring that is excellent in flatness and resolvability of Cu
residue. An evaluation substrate is provided for evaluating the condition
of a CMP that is employed for configuring a semiconductor device having a
plurality of wirings in a vertical direction, and the evaluation
substrate comprises: a substrate; a first groove formed on the substrate;
a second groove formed on the substrate; and wiring material provided in
the first groove and the second groove, wherein a depth of the second
groove is shallower than that of the first groove.
