A semiconductor device includes an interlayer insulating film formed on or
over a semiconductor substrate. An opening is formed in the interlayer
insulating film and reaches a lower layer metal wiring conductor. A metal
plug is formed by filling the opening with Cu containing metal via a
barrier metal. The interlayer insulating film includes the insulating
film which includes a carbon containing silicon oxide (SiOCH) film which
has Si--CH2 bond in the carbon containing silicon oxide film. The
proportion of Si--CH2 bond (1360 cm-1) to Si--CH3 bond (1270 cm-1) in the
insulating film is in a range from 0.03 to 0.05 measured as a peak height
ratio of FTIR spectrum.
