Charge pump capacitor assemblies and methods of manufacturing the same. One charge pump capacitor assembly includes a charge pump capacitor and a silicon substrate. The charge pump capacitor includes: a silicon-based charge pump capacitor oxide layer, a first terminal on a first side of the silicon-based charge pump layer, a second terminal on a second side of the silicon-based charge pump capacitor oxide layer opposite the first side, and a field oxide layer mounted adjacent the second terminal. The charge pump capacitor is coupled to the silicon substrate. The silicon substrate is etched to reduce contact between the silicon substrate and the field oxide layer.
