Abstract:
A semiconductor device may include an active pattern, a capacitor contact structure electrically connected to the active pattern, and a capacitor structure electrically connected to the capacitor contact structure. The capacitor structure may include a first lower electrode and a second lower electrode that are adjacent to each other, a supporter supporting the first and second lower electrodes, a capacitor insulating layer covering the first and second lower electrodes, and an upper electrode on the capacitor insulating layer. The supporter may include a first supporter curved sidewall connected to the first lower electrode and the second lower electrode, and the upper electrode may include an intervening electrode portion enclosed by the supporter. The first supporter curved sidewall may be convex toward the intervening electrode portion.
Abstract:
A capacitor dielectric can be between the storage node and the electrode layer. A supporting pattern can be connected to the storage node, where the supporting pattern can include at least one first pattern and at least one second pattern layered on one another, where the first pattern can include a material having an etch selectivity with respect to the second pattern.
Abstract:
Capacitor of a semiconductor device, and a method of fabricating the same, include sequentially forming a mold structure and a polysilicon pattern over a semiconductor substrate, patterning the mold structure using the polysilicon pattern as an etch mask to form lower electrode holes penetrating the mold structure, forming a protection layer covering a surface of the polysilicon pattern, forming lower electrodes in the lower electrode holes provided with the protection layer, removing the polysilicon pattern and the protection layer to expose upper sidewalls of the lower electrodes, removing the mold structure to expose lower sidewalls of the lower electrodes, and sequentially forming a dielectric and an upper electrode covering the lower electrodes.
