Semiconductor device

Abstract

Effective use is achieved of a region in a proximity of a joining plane of semiconductor substrates in a semiconductor device including a stacked semiconductor substrate in which multilayer wiring layers of a plurality of semiconductor substrates are electrically connected to each other. The stacked semiconductor substrate includes plural semiconductor substrates on each of which a multilayer wiring layer is formed. In this stacked semiconductor substrate, the multilayer wiring layers are joined together and electrically connected to each other. In the proximity of a joining plane of the plurality of semiconductor substrates, a conductor is formed. This conductor is formed such that it is electrified in a direction of the joining plane.
