CAPACITOR STRUCTURE AND METHOD FOR FABRICATING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17836579 titled 'CAPACITOR STRUCTURE AND METHOD FOR FABRICATING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The invention is a capacitor structure that includes a U-shaped bottom electrode with a cap dielectric at its open end, a top electrode, and a capacitor dielectric layer between them. This structure forms an outer capacitor around a solid inner capacitor in the shape of a cylinder. The cap dielectric divides the outer and inner capacitors. The inner capacitor and outer capacitor are fabricated separately to prevent damage to the structure during fabrication.

Original Abstract Submitted
This invention provides a capacitor structure includes a U-shaped bottom electrode having a cap dielectric provided at its open end, a top electrode and a capacitor dielectric layer interposed between the bottom electrode and the top electrode to constitute an outer capacitor around a cylinder type solid inner capacitor, and the outer capacitor and the inner capacitor are divided by the cap dielectric. The cylinder type solid inner capacitor and the outer capacitor are fabricated separately so that the cylinder type solid inner capacitor may support its own weight to prevent its structure from being damaged during the fabrication of the capacitor.
