Abstract

See full text

A semiconductor device, having a memory cell region and a peripheral circuit region, includes an insulating film, having an upper surface formed on a major surface of a semiconductor substrate to extend from a memory cell region to a peripheral circuit region thereof. A capacitor lower electrode is formed in the memory cell region to upwardly extend beyond the upper surface of the insulating film on the major surface of the semiconductor substrate. A capacitor upper electrode is formed on the capacitor lower electrode through a dielectric film, to extend onto the upper surface of the insulating film. The capacitor lower electrode includes a capacitor lower electrode part having a top surface and a bottom surface. The upper surface of the insulating film is located between the top and bottom surfaces of the capacitor lower electrode part.
