Abstract:
Methods of forming a capacitor including forming at least one aperture in a support material, forming a titanium nitride material within the at least one aperture, forming a ruthenium material within the at least one aperture over the titanium nitride material, and forming a first conductive material over the ruthenium material within the at least one aperture. The support material may then be removed and the titanium nitride material may be oxidized to form a titanium dioxide material. A second conductive material may then be formed over an outer surface of the titanium dioxide material.
Abstract:
A DRAM capacitor comprising a first capacitor electrode configured as a container and comprising a doped titanium nitride material, a capacitor dielectric on the first capacitor electrode, and a second capacitor electrode on the capacitor dielectric. Methods of forming the DRAM capacitor are also disclosed, as are semiconductor devices and systems comprising such DRAM capacitors.

A semiconductor structure may include a first electrode over a substrate, a high-K dielectric material over the first electrode, and a second electrode over the high-K dielectric material, wherein at least one of the first electrode and the second electrode may include a material selected from the group consisting of a molybdenum nitride (MoaNb) material, a molybdenum oxynitride (MoOxNy) material, a molybdenum oxide (MoOx) material, and a molybdenum-based alloy material comprising molybdenum and nitrogen.
Abstract:
Methods of forming a capacitor including forming a titanium nitride material within at least one aperture defined by a support material, forming a ruthenium material within the at least one aperture over the titanium nitride material, and forming a first conductive material over the ruthenium material within the at least one aperture. The titanium nitride material may be oxidized to a titanium dioxide material. A second conductive material may be formed over a surface of the titanium dioxide material. A semiconductor device may include at least one capacitor, wherein a major longitudinal portion of the at least one capacitor is not surrounded by a solid material. The capacitor may include a first electrode; a ruthenium oxide material laterally adjacent the first electrode; a rutile titanium dioxide material laterally adjacent the ruthenium oxide material; and a second electrode laterally adjacent the rutile titanium dioxide material.
