Semiconductor device, method of fabricating the same, and pattern generating method

摘要

A semiconductor device according to an embodiment of the present invention has: a semiconductor substrate; an interlayer insulating film formed above the semiconductor substrate; a protective film formed on the interlayer insulating film, the protective film having a higher density than that of the interlayer insulating film; at least one of a wiring and a dummy wiring formed in the interlayer insulating film and the protective film; and a separation wall formed within the interlayer insulating film so as to surround a low density region to separate the low density region from other regions, a sum of covering densities of the wiring and the dummy wiring being lower than a predetermined prescribed value in the low density region.
