Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a first interlayer dielectric (ILD) layer disposed over a substrate, and a first metal wiring pattern formed in the first interlayer dielectric layer and extending in a first direction parallel with the substrate. In a cross section along a second direction which crosses the first direction and is in parallel with the substrate, a top of the first metal wiring pattern is covered by a first two-dimensional material layer.
