Semiconductor devices and methods of forming the semiconductor devices using an HTS (High Temperature Superconductor) layer in combination with a typical diffusion layer between the dielectric material and the copper (or other metal) conductive wiring. The HTS layer includes a superconductor material comprised of barium copper oxide and a rare earth element. The rare earth element yttrium is particularly suitable. For semiconductor devices having other semiconductor circuits or elements above the wiring, a capping layer of HTS material is deposited over the wiring before a cover layer of dielectric is deposited.
