Semiconductor device, method of manufacturing semiconductor device, and substrate processing apparatus
Abstract
Provided is a semiconductor device including a metal film which can be formed with lower costs but still mange to have a necessary work function and oxidation resistance. The semiconductor device includes an insulating film disposed on a substrate; and a metal film disposed adjacent to the insulating film. The metal film includes a stacked structure of a first metal film and a second metal film. The oxidation resistance of the first metal film is greater than that of the second metal film. The second metal film has a work function greater than 4.8 eV and is different from the first metal film in material. The first metal film is disposed between the second metal film and the insulating film.
