Original Abstract Submitted
A semiconductor device may include a first capacitor and a second capacitor located at a different height from the first capacitor. Each of the first and second capacitors includes a lower electrode, an upper electrode and a dielectric layer between the lower electrode and the upper electrode. A selected one of the lower and upper electrodes includes a first portion having a cylindrical shape including a closed lower surface and an opened upper surface and a second portion vertically extended from the first portion of the selected one. A selected another one of the lower and upper electrodes includes a first portion having a bar shape extended into the first portion of the selected one, a second portion vertically extended from the first portion of the selected another one, and a third portion having a disc shape between the first portion and the second portion in the selected another one.
