SEMICONDUCTOR STRUCTURE AND METHOD FOR FORMING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17824924 titled 'SEMICONDUCTOR STRUCTURE AND METHOD FOR FORMING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a semiconductor structure with a capacitor structure and a contact structure.

  • The capacitor structure consists of an electrode layer, a protective dielectric layer, and a capacitor dielectric layer.
  • The protective dielectric layer covers the top surface of the electrode layer.
  • The capacitor dielectric layer is located on top of the protective oxide layer.
  • The contact structure penetrates the protective oxide layer and establishes an electrical connection with the electrode layer.


Original Abstract Submitted

A semiconductor structure includes a capacitor structure and a contact structure. The capacitor structure includes an electrode layer, a protective dielectric layer, and a capacitor dielectric layer. The protective dielectric layer covers a top surface of the electrode layer. The capacitor dielectric layer is on the protective oxide layer. The contact structure penetrates the protective oxide layer and electrically connects to the electrode layer.
