SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE: abstract simplified (18086340)

• This abstract for appeared for patent application number 18086340 Titled 'SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a semiconductor device that includes a substrate with transistors and multiple layers of insulating material. The device also has two interconnection lines, each consisting of a barrier pattern, a liner, and a conductive pattern. The height difference between the top surface of the conductive pattern and the lowermost portion of the liner is greater in the first interconnection line compared to the second interconnection line.

Original Abstract Submitted

Provided is a semiconductor device including a substrate including an active region, transistors on the substrate, a first interlayer insulating layer and a second interlayer insulating layer on the transistors, a first interconnection line in an upper portion of the first interlayer insulating layer, and a second interconnection line in the second interlayer insulating layer, wherein the first interconnection line includes a first barrier pattern, a first liner, and a first conductive pattern, wherein the second interconnection line includes a second barrier pattern, a second liner, and a second conductive pattern, wherein first height between an uppermost portion of a top surface of the first conductive pattern and a lowermost portion of a top surface of the first liner is greater than a second height between an uppermost portion of a top surface of the second conductive pattern and a lowermost portion of a top surface of the second liner.
