Abstract
Abstract A semiconductor device comprises one or two polycrystalline layers as wirings on a semiconductor substrate with one or two insulation films inbetween, openings are made utilizing a single photoresist mask by etching the polycrystalline silicon layer and the underlying insulation film in one sequence, and the polycrystalline silicon layers and a diffused region of the substrate exposed in the openings are connected with a tungsten film self-align-formed by low-pressure CVD.
