    Abstract: The present invention provides a high-performance metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor which contains a high-k dielectric, yet no substantial shorting of the MIM capacitor is observed. Specifically, shorting of the MIM capacitor is substantially prevented in the present invention by forming a passivation layer between the high-k dielectric layer and each of the capacitor's electrodes. The inventive MIM capacitor includes a first conductor; a first passivation layer located atop the first conductor; a high-k dielectric layer located atop the first passivation layer; a second passivation layer located atop the high k dielectric layer; and a second conductor located atop the second passivation layer.

    Abstract: A method to integrate MIM capacitors into conductive interconnect levels, with low cost impact, and high yield, reliability and performance than existing integration methods is provided. This is accomplished by recessing a prior level dielectric for MIM capacitor level alignment followed by deposition and patterning of the MIM capacitor films. Specifically, the method includes providing a substrate including a wiring level, the wiring level comprising at least one conductive interconnect formed in a dielectric layer; selectively removing a portion of the dielectric layer to recess the dielectric layer below an upper surface of the at least one conductive interconnect; forming a dielectric stack upon the at least one conductive interconnect and the recessed dielectric layer; and forming a metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor on the dielectric stack. The MIM capacitor includes a bottom plate electrode, a dielectric and a top plate electrode. The bottom and top plate electrodes can comprise the same or different conductive metal.
