    Abstract: A method for fabricating DRAM capacitors is described. Field effect devices are foraged in the silicon substrate. A first oxide layer is formed over the device and field oxide areas. The capacitors are formed by first depositing a heavily doped silicon layer over the device and field oxide areas. Then forming openings to the desired source/drain structures by etching through the silicon layer, and first oxide layers, wherein the opening extends over a portion of the gate electrode polysilicon layer of the gate structure and the field oxide areas. An undoped polysilicon layer is deposited over the openings to the source/drain structures. Patterning anisotropically the silicon and molysilicon layers so as to have their remaining portions over the planned capacitor areas, and wherein a portion of the heavily doped silicon layer remains over both the portion of the polysilicon gate electrode of the gate structure and the field oxide areas. Then completely removing by selective etching the portion of heavily doped silicon layer using phosphoric acid at a temperature greater than 140.degree. C. to create an undercut of the undoped polysilicon layer over both the portion of the polysilicon gate electrode of the gate structure and the field oxide areas and to construct the bottom storage node electrode of the desired capacitor. The capacitor is then completed.

    Abstract: A new method to produce a microminiturized capacitor having a roughened surface electrode is achieved. The method involves depositing a first polycrystalline or amorphous silicon layer over a suitable insulating base. The silicon layer is either in situ heavily, uniformly doped or deposited undoped and thereafter heavily doped by ion implantation followed by heating. The structure is annealed at above about 875.degree. C. to render any amorphous silicon polycrystalline and to adjust the crystal grain size of the layer. The polysilicon surface is no subjected to a solution of phosphoric acid at a temperature of above about 140.degree. C. to partially etch the surface and cause the uniformly roughened surface. A capacitor dielectric layer is deposited thereover. The capacitor structure is completed by depositing a second thin polycrystalline silicon layer over the capacitor dielectric layer.
