Semiconductor devices having a copper line layer and methods for manufacturing the same are disclosed. An illustrated semiconductor device comprises a damascene insulating layer having a contact hole, a barrier metal layer including a first ruthenium layer, a ruthenium oxide layer and a second ruthenium layer, a seed copper layer formed on the barrier metal layer, and a copper line layer made of a Cu-Ag-Au solid solution. A disclosed example method of manufacturing a semiconductor device reduces and/or prevents contact characteristic degradation of the barrier metal layer with the silicon substrate or the damascene insulating layer. In addition, by forming the copper line layer made of the Cu-Ag-Au solid solution, long term device reliability may be improved.
