  • Patent number: 11881503
    Abstract: The present invention provides a semiconductor memory device including a substrate, a plurality of capacitors and a supporting layer disposed on the substrate, wherein each of the capacitors is connected with at least one of the adjacent capacitors through the supporting layer. Each of the capacitors includes first electrodes, a high-k dielectric layer and a second electrode, and the high-k dielectric layer is disposed between the first electrodes and the second electrode. Due to the supporting layer directly contacts the high-k dielectric layer through a surface thereof, and the high-k dielectric layer completely covers the surface, the second electrode may be formed directly within openings with an enlarged dimension. Accordingly, the process difficulty of performing the deposition and etching processes within the openings may be reduced, and the capacitance of the capacitors is further increased.

  • Publication number: 20230073903
    Abstract: A semiconductor memory device includes a substrate and a capacitor. The capacitor is disposed on the substrate, and the capacitor includes a bottom electrode layer, a capacitor dielectric layer and a top electrode layer sequentially stacked from bottom to top and an aluminum-containing insulation layer. The aluminum-containing insulation layer includes aluminum titanium nitride or aluminum oxynitride, and is in direct contact with the capacitor dielectric layer and disposed between the bottom electrode layer and the top electrode layer. Therefore, the semiconductor memory device may effectively improve the leakage current.
