The present invention is directed to a process for manufacturing a semiconductor device. It includes a step for forming a fine wiring, and provides a process for uniformly and positively forming a film of a barrier metal, such as tantalum, for preventing the metal, such as copper, which becomes the first material for the wiring, from diffusing into a silicon oxide film. The process involves depositing an oxide of a barrier metal on a substrate which is formed with a via hole by a process such as CVD process. A high quality barrier metal film is formed by reducing the oxide by applying a negative potential to the oxide in a solution in which hydrogen ions are present. Subsequently an embedded wiring is formed by embedding the main metal by a plating process and the like and polishing to remove unnecessary portions.
