Description:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     (a) Field of the Invention 
     The present invention relates to a semiconductor device and a method for manufacturing the same, and more particularly to a semiconductor device having a highly reliable wiring conductor film and a method for manufacturing the same. 
     (b) Description of the Prior Art 
     As conventional wiring conductor film materials used in a semiconductor device, aluminum alloys doped with a small amount of copper, silicon or precious metals have been known. 
     A copper-doped aluminum conductive stripe is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,725,309, and is indicated to be advantageous against electromigration, in other words, to be effective in preventing disconnection failures in conductive film interconnections due to electrical drift. 
     According to the above U.S. Pat., in order to avoid the problems due to electromigration, copper (Cu) in an amount of 0.1 to 54 weight is added to aluminum (Al). Thereby precipitation structure of CuAl 2  grains is formed, the same interposes in grain boundaries and intercrystal triple points of aluminum base, restrains atom movement of aluminum atoms, and prolongs a life span of a semiconductor device while suppressing the electromigration. 
     However, as CuAl 2  is likely to segregate, so that there is a drawback that a failure due to electromigration occurs at portions where CuAl 2  is not precipitated. 
     Moreover, it is difficult to process an AlCu alloy into a conductive film pattern by means of dry-etching. As the same is corroded with chlorine (Cl) elements in use and residual Cl ions, the same is attended with a drawback in that it is extremely difficult to process the same with a precision of less than 1μm, in particular less than 0.6 μm. 
     Besides, a little amount of silicon and moreover a precious metal (Pt, Pd, Rh, In) doped aluminum conductor film material is disclosed in Japanese Patent Application, Laid-Open No. 60-26640 (1986), and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 61-144817 (1986), however the same is attended with the same drawback as in the above U.S. Pat. 
     Further, so as to enhance electromigration resistance property, a laminated wiring conductive film which is composed of an aluminum alloy and a high fusing point metal is discussed in IEEE, IRPS (1988) pp. 179-184. 
     This is because such prevents disconnection of the wiring conductor as a whole, due to the laminated high fusing point metal even when an aluminum alloy be disconnected due to electromigration. 
     More specifically, as laminated wiring conductor films having an aluminum alloy and a high fusing point metal, there are mentioned AlCu alloy/MoSi 2  and AlSi alloy/TiW. However, the specific resistance of MoSi 2  is about 800 μΩcm, that of TiW is 60-100 μΩcm, and these are about 20 to 300 times higher than that of an Al alloy (30 μΩcm). Therefore, when an Al alloy is disconnected, the temperature of MoSi 2  or TiW increases, causing another disconnection. 
     Moreover, the above laminated-layer conductor film permits a current density of only 1 to 2×10 2  A/cm 2 , which is not sufficient for a current density of more than 5×10 5  A/cm 2  required for a semiconductor device incorporating a microscopic conductor film (less than 0.6 μm) to meet with ever increasing memory capacity. 
     In the above-mentioned prior art, measures for improving electromigration resistance in aluminum alloys and lowering electrical resistance in laminated conductor films were not examined sufficiently. 
     Resistance increase in the laminated conductor film due to electromigration results from disconnection at grain boundaries, which is caused by migration, or mass transport of aluminum over a layer of MoSi 2  or TiW (hereinafter referred to as a barrier layer) during current conduction. When grain boundaries are strong enough, an increase in resistance will not occur. 
     However, since the specific resistances of MoSi 2  and TiW are approximately 20 to 300 times larger than that of aluminum, when the electromigration resistance of aluminum is insufficient, the resistance of the conductor film will inevitably increase owing to the disconnection of aluminum, thereby leading to a disconnection of the laminated conductor film. Because the electromigration resistance property of an AlCu alloy now in use is not enough, the same has a problem wherein the resistance of the conductor film is increased through a large electric current conduction. 
     When aluminum alloys doped with several percent of silicon are used for wiring in a semiconductor device, and this device is operated under a large current or at a high temperature, constituent atoms in the aluminum alloy conductor film are migrated, due to a current flowing therein, forming a hillock in one section and a void in another section. When the hillock grows the same causes a short-circuiting, when the voids grows the same causes an electrical resistance increase in the wiring conductor, consequently fusing the same by the heat generated, finally leading to a failure of the semiconductor device. 
     Prior publications other than above relating to wiring conductor thin films, are Japan Patent Application, Laid-Open No. 55- 56645 (1980), Japan Patent Application, Laid-Open No. 59- 61147 (1984), Japan Patent Application, Laid-Open No. 59- 28360 (1984) Japan Patent Application, Laid-Open No. 63-4649 (1988), and Japan Patent Application, Laid-Open No. 133648 (1988). 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     (a) Objects of the Invention 
     An object of the present invention is to provide a semiconductor device which has a high electromigration resistance than that of an Al-Si alloy/TiW now in use and thereby prevents the disconnection of the wiring conductor film. 
     Furthermore, an object of the present invention is to provide a semiconductor device wherein the resistance of the wiring conductor film is hardly increased due to electromigration even when a large electric current of more than 5×10 5  A/cm 2  is conducted therethrough. 
     Moreover, an object of the present invention is to provide a semiconductor device and a method of manufacturing the same wherein a coverage of contact holes formed by means of a sputtering method is more than 30%. 
     (b) Statements of the Invention 
     A semiconductor device according to the present invention is comprising a semiconductor substrate; a first insulator film formed on the semiconductor substrate; a first wiring conductor film disposed on the first insulator film for interconnection, electrically connected to the semiconductor substrate through contact holes, having a specific resistance of 5 to 15 μΩcm, having an allowable current density of 1×10 6  to 1×10 2  ; a second insulator film formed on the first wiring conductor film; a plug composed of a refractory material and low resistance material filling a through hole made in the second insulator film with substantially the same thickness as the second insulator film, electrically connected to the first wiring conductor film; and a second wiring conductor film disposed on the second insulator film and the plug for interconnection, electrically connected to the plug, having a laminated layer structure of at least a layer of the refractory material and low resistance material. 
     For materials for the semiconductor substrate used in a semiconductor device according to the present invention, it is preferable to use Si (Silicon). 
     As materials for the first insulator film and the second insulator film, it is preferable to use metal oxides, and most preferably SiO 2 . 
     As a material for the first wiring conductor film, such materials having a specific resistance of 5 to 15 μΩcm and an allowable current density of 1×10 6  to 1×10 8  A/cm 2  are to be used, in particular, W (tungsten), Mo (molybdenum) or TiN (titanium nitride) etc., are preferably to be used. The first wiring conductor film is required to have a durability to a stress from a first insulator film to be formed thereon. The first wiring conductor film, however, is not required to have as low an electrical resistance as that required for a second wiring conductor film to be overlaid later. Therefore it is preferable to use a metal having a high resistance to the stress and a high fusing point for the first siring conductor film. Thereby, disconnection due to a large electric current conduction is prevented. 
     The second wiring conductor film is preferably to have a laminated layer structure formed of a layer of a high fusing point and low resistance material and a layer of an aluminum based alloy. The laminated layer structure may be either one in which a layer of aluminum based alloys is laminated onto a layer of a high fusing point and low resistance material, or one in which a layer of a high fusing point and low resistance material is laminated onto a layer of aluminum based alloy. Furthermore the laminated layer structure may be one sandwiching a layer of an Al based alloy between layers of a high fusing point low resistance material. The high fusing point and low resistance layer is preferably made of the same material as that in the first wiring conductor film; more specifically, W, Mo, TiN, or the like is used. The aluminum based alloys are required to have a lower resistance than that of a high fusing point and low resistance layer. As aluminum based alloys, Al-Pd-Nb-Si, Al-Pd-Cr-Si, Al-Pd-Zr-Si, Al-Pd-Mo-Si, Al-Pd-Mg-Si, Al-Pd-Ta-Si and the like are preferable, in particular, Al-Pd-Nb-Si or Al-Pd-Nb without Si is preferable. Furthermore, a preferable alloy composition is such having 0.01 to 0.5 weight percent of Pd, 0.1 to 2 weight percent of Si, 0.01 to 5 weight percent of one of Nb, Cr, Zr, Mo, Mg, and Ta, and the remainder of aluminum. In addition, when W, Mo or TiN is used for a layer of a high fusing point and low resistance material, Al-Si, Al-Cu, Al-Si-Cu and the like may be used for a mating layer. Because of the laminated layer structure, the second wiring conductor film is required to have a higher current density than that required for the first wiring conductor film. 
     As the plug electrically connecting the first wiring conductor film with the second wiring conductor film, a high fusing point material, such as W, Mo and TiN is preferably used. 
     In the following, a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device in according with the present invention is explained. Steps of the manufacturing method comprise, 
     (1) a step of forming a first insulator film on a semiconductor substrate, 
     (2) a step of forming a contact hole in the first insulator film, 
     (3) a step of forming a first wiring conductor film on the first insulator film, so as to connect electrically with the semiconductor substrate through the contact hole, 
     (4) a step of forming a second insulator film on the first wiring conductor film, 
     (5) a step of filming a through hole in the second insulator film, 
     (6) a step of forming a plug by filling the through hole with substantially the same thickness as the second insulator in order to electrically connect thereof to the first wiring conductor film, and 
     (7) A step of forming a second wiring conductor film on the second insulator film and the plug so as to electrically connect with the plug. 
     The first wiring conductor film is preferably formed by a sputtering method, wherein preferably a sputter voltage and a bias voltage are alternatively switched. Thereby, a film of tungsten (W) or others is formed on a contact hole with a coverage of more than 30%, and with a wiring conductor surface irregularity of less than 0.2 μm. 
     It is extremely difficult to form a layer of tungsten (W) or the like, with a good coverage, on the above-mentioned contact hole by means of a usual sputtering method. An ordinary coverage was 10 to 20%. Besides, adhesion with a semiconductor substrate is inferior because of inclusion of impurities, etc. 
     In the present invention, a coverage more than 30% is obtained by setting a sputter pressure in a range of 10 -4  Torr, and by alternatively applying sputter and bias voltages. In addition, high adhesion with a semiconductor substrate, in particular, a silicon substrate, is obtained. 
     Namely, when a sputter voltage is applied, sputtered tungsten (W) or the like is deposited on the bottom of a microscopic hole. Deposited tungsten on the bottom is then resputtered onto the wall by applying a bias voltage. Thereby the coverage is improved. 
     An effect of resputtering is confirmed in a vacuum of 10 -4  Torr order. In an ordinary sputtering under vacuum of 10 -3  Torr order, however, the effect of resputtering by argon (Ar) particles has not been sufficiently recognized. In addition, because this resputtering method helps to reduce the amount of inclusion of impurities in the wiring conductor film, a wiring conductor film with a small specific resistance is obtained. 
     Further, when forming the plug in the through hole, the plug may be formed either in the same way by a sputtering method as in the first wiring conductor film, or by a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. 
     A wiring conductor film having a rather good coverage is formed by a CVD method. For example, when using tungsten (W) as a high fusing point metal, WF 6  is used as a source gas. A tungsten (W) film is then obtained through a reaction of WF 6  +3H 2  →W+6HF,. There arises a problem that HF generated by the reaction will damage a semiconductor substrate. Because the HF, however, will not render a large damage to the through hole or the first wiring conductor film, a CVD method could be utilized. 
     Further, a semiconductor device of the present invention comprises a semiconductor substrate; a first insulator film formed on the semiconductor substrate; a first wiring conductor film having a bamboo structure disposed on the first insulator film for interconnection, electrically connected to the semiconductor substrate through contact holes, having a specific resistance of 5˜150 μΩcm and an allowable current density of 1×10 6  to 1×10 8  A/cm 2  ; a second insulator film formed on the first wiring conductor film; a plug comprosed of a high fusing point and low resistance material filling a through hole made in the second insulator film with substantially the same thickness as the second insulator film, electrically connected to the first wiring conductor film; and a second wiring conductor film disposed on the second insulator film and the pug for interconnection, electrically connected to the plug, having a laminated layer structure of at least a high fusing point and low resistance material layer and an Al based alloy layer.

     A semiconductor device of the present invention comprises a semiconductor substrate including silicon (Si) as a major constituent; a first insulator film formed on the semiconductor substrate; a first wiring conductor film composed of one of a titanium nitride (TiN), tungsten (W) and molybdenum (Mo) disposed on the first insulator film for interconnection, electrically connected to the semiconductor substrate through a contact hole; a second insulator film formed on the first wiring conductor film; a plug composed of tungsten (W) or molybdenum (Mo) filling a through hole made in the second insulator film with substantially the same thickness as the second insulator layer, electrically connected to the first wiring conductor film; and a second wiring conductor film disposed on the second insulator film and the plug, electrically connected to the plug, having at least a two layered structure composed of a layer formed of titanium nitride (TiN), tungsten (W), or molybdenum, and a layer containing, aluminum (Al), palladium (Pd) and silicon (Si), and further containing at least one of niobium (Nb), chromium (Cr), zirconium (Zr), molybdenum (Mo), magnesium (Mg) and tantalum (Ta) by 0.01˜5 weight percent. 
     A semiconductor device of the present invention comprises, a semiconductor substrate including silicon as a major constituent; a first insulator film overlaying the semiconductor substrate; a first wiring conductor film disposed on the first insulator film for interconnection, electrically connected to the semiconductor substrate through contact hole, having at least a two layered structure composed of a layer formed of titanium nitride (TiN), tungsten (W), or molybdenum, and a layer containing, aluminum (Al), palladium (Pd) and silicon (Si), and further containing at least one of niobium (Nb), chromium (Cr), zirconium (Zr), molybdenum (Mo), magnesium (Mg) and tantalum (Ta), in 0.01˜5 weight percent; a second insulator film formed on the first wiring conductor film; a plug composed of tungsten (W) or molybdenum (Mo) filling a through hole formed in the second insulator film with substantially the same thickness as the second insulator film, electrically connected to the first wiring conductor film; and a second wiring conductor film disposed on the second insulator film and the plug for interconnection, electrically connected to the plug, having at least a two layered structure composed of a layer formed of titanium nitride (TiN), tungsten (W) or molybdenum (Mo) and a mating layer including aluminum (Al), palladium (Pd) and silicon (Si), and further containing at least one of niobium (Nb), chromium (Cr), zirconium (Zr), molybdenum (Mo), magnesium (Mg) and tantalum (Ta) in 0.01 to 5 weight percent. 
     A semiconductor device of the present invention comprises a semiconductor substrate; a first insulator film formed on the semiconductor substrate; a barrier composed of titanium nitride (TiN) filling in a contact hole formed on the first insulator film in a thickness less than the film thickness, electrically connected to the semiconductor substrate; a first wiring conductor film formed of one of tungsten (W) or molybdenum (Mo) disposed on the first insulator film for interconnection, electrically connected to the barrier; a second insulator film formed on the first wiring conductor; a plug composed of one of tungsten (W) and molybdenum (Mo) filling a through hole formed in the second insulator film with substantially the same thickness as the second insulator film, electrically connected to the first wiring conductor film; and a second wiring conductor film disposed on the second insulator film and the plug for interconnection, connected to the plug, having at least a two layered structure composed of a layer of titanium nitride (TiN), tungsten (W) and molybdenum (Mo), and a mating layer containing aluminum (Al), palladium (Pd) and silicon (Si), and further containing at least one of niobium (Nb), chromium (Cr), zirconium (Zr), molybdenum (Mo), magnesium (Mg) and tantalum (Ta) in 0.01˜5 weight %. 
     In the following, the specific resistance and allowable current density are indicated specifically. For example, in an Al-0.5% Cu-1% Si, its specific resistance is less than 3.5 μΩcm, and its allowable current density less than 5×10 5  A/cm 2 . In an Al-1% Si, its specific resistance is less than 3.2 μΩcm, and its allowable current density less than 1×10 5  A/cm 2 . Aluminum itself has a specific resistance of about 3.0 μΩcm, and an allowable current density of about 5×10 4  A/cm 2 . 
     Therefore, when tungsten (W) is used as a low resistance and high fusing point material, an aluminum based alloy having a lower specific resistance than tungsten (W), (about 15 μΩcm), can be used as a second wiring conductor film for a semiconductor device of the present invention. That is, Al based alloys of any kind having a lower specific resistance than that of a low resistance and high fusing point material other than W, may be employed. 
     Further in a semiconductor device of the present invention, a first wiring conductor film and a second wiring conductor film are described to be included, however, the present invention also includes such laminated layer structures in which wiring conductor films having the same constitution as the second wiring conductor film are laminated as a third wiring conductor film and a fourth wiring conductor film. 
     A contact hole is a portion where a semiconductor substrate and a wiring conductor film contact. In a semiconductor device fabricated by using 0.5 μm process technology, a diameter and a height of a contact hole are approximately 0.5 μm and 1 μm respectively. A ratio of height to diameter (height/diameter) of the contact hole is called aspect ratio. In this example, an aspect ratio is about 2. In considering the manufacturing process, the diameter and height of a contact hole will be approximately 0.6 μm and 0.9 μm respectively. A through hole is a portion where a wiring conductor film contacts with another wiring conductor film. 
     Further in particular, the first wiring conductor film is preferably formed of columnal crystallizations or may be of a bamboo-structure. 
     More than two type of deposits are preferably precipitated concurrently at the grain boundaries of an aluminum-based alloy. 
     It is also preferable to interpose an oxide film in a boundary between the low resistance high fusing point metal and the aluminum based alloy layer. 
     In case, the wiring conductor film is formed of a low resistance and high fusing point metal and an aluminum based alloy, it is preferable that an average diameter of grains of an aluminum based alloy be more than 60% of a wiring conductor width. 
     In addition, it is preferable to interpose a titanium tungsten (TiW) layer between the low resistance high fusing point metal and the aluminum based alloy, because this enhances an effect of barrier layer of the high fusing point metal. 
     Furthermore, a semiconductor device manufactured by less than 0.5 μm process technologies of the present invention, is found to have a resistance increase rate less than 120% for the wiring conductor film even after subjecting continuously to a large current of a density more than 5×10 5  A/cm 2  for ten years. 
     Also after a current conduction for 100 hours of a large current density over 5×10 5  A/cm 2  at a temperature condition of 200° C., a rate of resistance increase of the wiring conductor film is found to be below 120%. 
     The data for ten years have been calculated proportionally using the following formula and under an accelerated test condition. ##EQU1## where, I is a current density, Q is an activation energy, R is a gas constant, T is the absolute temperature, and n is a constant. 
     The calculated rate of resistance increase of the wiring conductor film being 120% indicates that the resistance after subjecting to a current conduction becomes 1.2 times that before the current conduction. On the other hand, the life time of the wiring conductor shows a time for the rate of resistance increase to reach 120%. 
     Further, in the semiconductor device of the present invention, a surface irregularity of the wiring conductor film is less than 0.2 μm, and preferably less than 0.1 μm. In view of the specific resistance of the wiring conductor film, a coverage of the contact hole is preferably more than 50%. 
     Besides, the specific resistance of the first wiring conductor film is preferably less than 15 μΩcm, and that of the second wiring conductor film is preferably less than 6 μΩcm. It is because, in a high speed SRAM etc. a large current is considered to flow through the second wiring conductor film and wiring conductor films thereabove. 
     By means of these semiconductor devices, a higher electromigration resistance property than those obtained by conventionally used an Al-Si/TiW, an Al-Cu-Si/MoSi 2 , etc., has been realized and an object to prevent the wiring conductor film from disconnecting is accomplished. Moreover, a semiconductor device is realized of which the wiring conductor film resistance will hardly increase even after subjecting to a large current of more than 5×10 5  A/cm 2 . 
     An IC package of the present invention comprises a lead-frame mounting a semiconductor device, a wire electrically connecting a wiring conductor film on the top of the semiconductor device with the lead-frame, and an sealing material for sealing the peripheries of the semiconductor device and the wire. 
     Moreover, a sputtering target which is used for depositing an Al base alloy by means of sputtering, is characterized in that the same is composed of an alloy which contains Al, Pd and Si, and one of niobium (Nb), chromium (Cr), zirconium (Zr), molybdenum (Mo), magnesium (Mg) or tantalum (Ta) in 0.01˜5 weight %. 
     The semiconductor device of the present invention is applicable to a dynamic RAM having a memory capacity more than 4 M bits, a static RAM having a memory capacity more than 1 M bits, etc. 
     With regard to functions of barrier layer in the laminated wiring conductor, boundary conditions between the Al alloy and the barrier layer in the laminated layer wiring conductor are extremely important. That is to say, when a reaction with Al occurs, the resistance of the wiring conductor film increases and the electromigration resistance of the same decreases. 
     In a laminated wiring conductor film with a MoSi barrier layer and an Al alloy, when annealed at a temperature of 450° C., the reaction greatly proceeds and the resistance of the wiring conductor film greatly increases. 
     Meanwhile, in the laminated wiring conductor film with the TiW barrier layer and the Al alloy, due to the existence of Ti, the reaction also proceeds and the resistance of the wiring conductor film increases. 
     It is found that in a laminated wiring conductor film having W, etc. and the Al alloy, a reaction hardly proceeds, therefore little compounds are produced on the boundary between W etc. and an Al alloy, thus, the boundary thickness is kept less than 100Å. Mo in particular does not react with the Al alloy. This is because a strong thin oxide film is formed thereon. Because of no reaction, the resistance of the wiring conductor film does not increase, and moreover because of the existence of the oxide film on the boundary, Al does not migrate. The oxide film thickness is preferably less than 50Å. Therefore, even when a large current is conducted therethrough, disconnection of the film does not occur. 
     Meanwhile, in order to prevent an increase in resistance of a wiring conductor film even after a large current conduction, it is required that an electromigration resistance of Al alloy itself be enhanced. For this purpose, it is required to strengthen crystalline grain boundaries thereof. For example, it was confirmed in the Al-Pd-Nb-Si alloy that Al 3  Nb or AlNb and Al 4  Pd precipitating concurrently at the grain boundaries help strengthen the grain boundaries more than two times than those in which only Al 4  Pd was precipitated. This is more than four times greater than those where an Al-Cu alloy is used. 
     That is to say, with the laminated wiring conductor film formed of an Al-Pd-Nb-Si alloy and W, etc., a comparatively higher electromigration resistance property than those of an Al-Cu alloy/MoSi and an Al-Si alloy/TiW is obtainable. 
     Further, because Pd is added to the above mentioned Al-Pd-Nb-Si alloy, side-etching is prevented during microscopic processing, and a sufficient patterning property below 0.6 μm is obtained. 
     Alloys other than the Al-Pd-Nb-Si alloy which show high electromigration resistance properties are such as Al-Pd-Cr-Si, Al-Pd-Zr-Si, Al-Pd-Mo-Si, Al-Pd-Mg-Si, and Al-Pd-Ta-Si, Al-Pd-Nb, Al-Pd-Cr, Al-Pd-Zr, Al-Pd-Mo, Al-Pd-Mg and Al-Pd-Ta. 
     By means of the present invention, a higher electromigration resistance property than those of the conventional Al-Si alloy/TiW, Al-Cu-Si alloy/MoSi 2 , etc. is obtained and a disconnection of the wiring conductor film is prevented. 
     Further, by means of the present invention, a semiconductor device is provided in which a wiring conductor film resistance due to electromigration hardly increases even after a large current more than 5×10 5  A/cm 2  is conducted.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS 
     Hereinafter embodiments are explained with reference to the drawings. 
     FIG. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a semiconductor device of thepresent invention. 
     On a semiconductor substrate 1, is formed a first insulator film 2. A firstwiring conductor film 3 formed on the first insulator film 2 is contacted to the semiconductor substrate 1 through a contact hole 4. Further, on thefirst wiring conductor film 3, is formed a second insulator film 5. A second wiring conductor film 6 formed on the second insulator film 5 has atwo layered structure, and is contacted to the first wiring conductor film 3 through a through hole 7. 
     The semiconductor substrate 1 composed of silicon (Si), therein impurities are partially doped. The first wiring conductor film 3 is a W film which was formed by means of sputtering, and the coverage of the W film over thecontact hole 4 was about 50%. Further, the through hole 7 was formed by a CVD method using W. The through hole may be formed by a sputtering method,however, because the through hole formation is not on the Si substrate, thus effecting no damage on the same, a CVD method can also be used. The first layer of the second wiring conductor film 6 was composed of Mo, and the second layer was composed of an Al-Pd-Nb-Si alloy. 
     Thereby, a semiconductor device is realized which enables to conduct such alarge current having a current density gas large as 5×10 5  A/cm 2  without causing electromigration. 
     FIG. 2 shows a schematic cross-sectional view of another semiconductor device of the present invention. 
     On a semiconductor substrate 1, a first insulator film 2 is formed. A firstwiring conductor film 3 formed on the first insulator film 2 has a two layered structure and is contacted to the semiconductor substrate 1 through a contact hole 4. The first layer of the first wiring conductor film 3 was formed of Mo and the second layer was formed of an Al-Pd-Nb-Si alloy. Further, on the first wiring conductor film 3 is formed a second insulator film 5. A second wiring conductor film 6 formed on the second insulator film 5 has also a two layered structure, and is connected to thefirst wiring conductor film 3 through a through hole 7. The second conductor film 6 was formed similarly as the first wiring conductor film 3. 
     Thereby, because both the first wiring conductor film 3 and the second wiring conductor film 6 have specific resistances as small as 4˜50 μΩcm, the same are applicable to a semiconductor device requiringa high speed access operation. Absorption of Si into an Al alloy are also prevented. 
     Moreover, by thus film structure of the present embodiment, DRAMs with morethan 16 M bits and SRAMs with more than 4 M bits are able to be accomplished. 
     Many type of wiring conductor films other than the semiconductor device having the wiring conductor film structure in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 are able to be accomplished. 
     For example, a wiring conductor film is formed by depositing a high fusing point metal onto an Al alloy. Thereby oxidization of the Al alloy is prevented, flatness is further enhanced and dry-etching is also improved. 
     Furthermore, it is preferable that the wiring conductor film has a laminated layer structure composed of TiW, a high fusing point metal and an Al-Cu alloy. By interposing a high fusing point metal between TiW and an Al-Cu alloy, production of reaction compounds from Ti and Cu are suppressed, and for example, when Si is used for the semiconductor substrate, absorbing up Si into the Al-Cu alloy is suppressed. 
     Besides, it is also preferable to deposit a high fusing point metal on polysilicon, then to overlay thus deposited high fusing point metal with an Al alloy. 
     On a semiconductor (Si) substrate, Al is deposited, and further TiAl 3  or MoAl 12  is deposited thereon. Further, it is preferable that W, Mo or TiN is deposited and thereon Al is deposited to form a wiring conductorfilm. Thereby, adhesion between the first Al and the second Al is enhanced and as well absorption of Si into the second Al is prevented. FIG. 3 showsthe result of evaluation of electromigration resistance properties obtainedusing contact holes having a diameter of 0.5 μm, a height of 1.0 μm and an aspect ratio of 2.0, and forming a W or Mo film thereon as well as changing the coverage. 
     Electromigration resistance property is represented by an allowable currentdensity. The coverage, as shown in FIG. 4 is represented by a ratio (t/T) or a film thickness (t) of a W or Mo film formed on the side wall of the contact hole to a film thickness (T) of the same film formed on the insulator film 2. Here, the numeral 1 shows a semiconductor substrate and the numeral 3 shows a wiring conductor film. 
     As shown in FIG. 3, it is observed that in proportion to an increase in thecoverage, the allowable current density increases. Particularly in the embodiment of the present invention, it is apparent that in order to obtain an allowable current density of 5×10 5  A/cm 2 , a coverage more than 40% is required. 
     In FIG. 3, a wiring conductor film with a 100% coverage was formed by meansof a CVD method. However, a wiring conductor film formed by a CVD method, has an irregular surface in range of more than 0.2 μm. Therefore, an insulator film formed thereon and a second wiring conductor film formed onthe insulator tend to be influenced by the irregularity, thereby causing problems such as wiring conductor film disconnection. 
     In case W is used as a wiring conductor film, as W film is formed through reduction of WF 6  with H 2  in the following reaction, 
     
         WF.sub.6 +3H.sub.3 →W+6HF 
    
     the HF produced in the reaction damages a semiconductor substrate. 
     On the other hand, when a W or Mo film is formed on the above mentioned microscopic contact hole by means of a sputtering method, a damage on the semiconductor substrate is prevented, besides a flat wiring conductor filmbeing provided. 
     However, by means of conventional sputtering techniques, it was difficult to form a wiring conductor film on microscopic contact holes with a coverage of more than 30%. 
     FIG. 5 is a result of investigation of step coverage on the bottom and on the side wall of a contact hole while varying a bias voltage during sputtering. 
     In sputtering with 0 bias voltage, an adequate stepcoverage is obtained forthe bottom, but poor one for the side wall. Namely W is deposited rather well on the bottom, but scarcely on the side wall. In response to an increase in the bias voltage, the coverage on the bottom decreases while that of the side wall increases by means of a resputtering. However, it was found out that by the conventional sputtering techniques, increasing coverages both on the bottom and the side wall by more than 50% preferred in the present invention was difficult. 
     Moreover, it was observed that a coverage obtained by a sputtering under 10 -3  Torr is about 10% lower than that obtained under 10 -4  Torr. 
     FIG. 6 shows a result of investigation on the coverage of W conducted in consideration of the effect of applying sputter and bias voltages alternatively and varying the bias time ratio. 
     It was observed that the coverage changed depending upon the bias time ratio. Moreover, as seen in FIG. 6, a coverage more than 50% was achieved when the bias time ratio was 0.4˜0.9. 
     In case of Al, when the bias time ratio was 0.3, the coverage became maximum. 
     The W film formed by means of the above mentioned method has an extremely good adhesion with Si substrate materials and SiO, insulator film. Further, the specific resistance of the wiring conductor film is 11˜13 μΩcm which is almost the same as that of the conventional sputtering techniques. 
     FIG. 7 shows results of evaluations of electromigration resistance properties of an Al-Si monolayer film, and of laminated layer films of Al-Si/TiW, Al-Si/W, and Al-Si/Mo. 
     Here, R shows a wiring conductor film resistance after subjecting to current conduction, and R 0  shows that before the current conduction. These evaluations were carried out at 150° C. and at a current density of 3×10 6  A/cm 2 . 
     With regard to the Al-Si monolayer film, it is shown that R/R 0  reaches500% after subjecting to the current conduction for less than 10 hours. 
     With regard to the laminated films of Al-Si/TiW, Al-Si/W, and Al-Si/Mo, it is shown that their wiring film resistances increase with the increase in a current conduction time. This is because that the current conduction causes Al migration along grain boundaries, thereby introducing slight disconnection in Al film. It also causes a build-up of resistance in a barrier layer of TiW, W or Mo, adding to a total resistance of the wiring conductor film. 
     FIG. 8 is a schematic view of a laminated wiring conductor film where a slit was generated in the Al wiring conductor film by electromigration. Ona barrier layer 11, is formed an Al wiring conductor film 12. The film thickness of the barrier layer 11 was formed in 0.2 μm and that of the Al wiring conductor layer was formed in 0.4 μm. 
     The calculated results of increases in resistance of wiring conductor filmsare shown in the next table, where TiW and W are used as materials for the barrier layer 11. 
     
                       TABLE______________________________________              TiW  W______________________________________Specific resistance of barrier                80     12materials (μΩcm)Initial resistance (μΩcm)                4.4    3.9Resistance under slit                6.8    4.2generation (μΩcm)______________________________________ 
    
     From the tale, it is clear that resistance increase under slit generation for the W barrier layer is lower than the same for the TiW barrier layer. Therefore, it is obvious that as a barrier layer of an Al wiring conductorfilm layer, a W film is more suited than a TiW film. 
     FIG. 9 shows a result of measurements on migration amount in the Al-Si filmoccurred when currents were flowed through the laminated film of Al-Si/W orAl-Si/Mo respectively. 
     From FIG. 9, it is obvious that the Al-Si film on the Mo film is harder to migrate than on the W film. 
     In view of the afore-mentioned results, it is obvious that Mo is most suitable for the barrier layer. 
     An electric resistance of the laminated wiring conductor film is caused dueto Al migration by current conduction and by a slight disconnection at Al grain boundary. Therefore, in order to prevent the wiring conductor film resistance increase, an Al alloy which has a high grain boundary strength is required. 
     FIG. 10 shows results of an evaluation on the grain boundary strength of several kinds of Al alloys, conducted by using fatigue tests. 
     In FIG. 10, it is shown that the grain boundary strength of an Al-Pd-Nb-Si alloy is highest, and other alloys such as Al-Pd-Mo-Si, Al-Pd-Zr-Si, Al-Pd-Cr-Si, Al-Pd-Ta-Si, and Al-Pd-Mg-Si have also good properties in strength. 
     FIG. 11 shows a relation between rupture time and film disconnection time caused by electromigration. 
     From FIG. 11, it is obvious that a material having a long rupture time alsohas a long time until film disconnection caused by electromigration. 
     FIG. 12 shows results of a comparison of the electromigration resistance property between the laminated wiring conductor film containing an Al-Pd-Nb-Si alloy and Mo, and that of the laminated wiring conductor filmscontaining different Al alloys and Mo. 
     According to FIG. 12, it is obvious that the electromigration resistance property of the Al-Pd-Nb-Si/Mo wiring conductor film is excellent. 
     FIG. 13 shows an embodiment of an IC package of the present invention. 
     Numeral 11 shows a semiconductor device wherein a wiring conductor film is formed on a semiconductor substrate. The wiring conductor film has a laminated structure of a layer containing one of W and Mo, and an Al base alloy layer, wherein the wiring conductor film permitting a current density more than 5×10 5  A/cm 2 . 
     Numeral 12 shows a lead frame mounting the substrate, numeral 13 shows a wire electrically connecting between the wiring conductor film and the lead frame, and numeral 14 shows a sealing material for sealing the peripheries of the semiconductor substrate 11 carrying the wiring conductor film, and the wire 13. 
     The IC package mounting the semiconductor device of the present invention is applicable to a high current density operation.
