Abstract: Embodiments of mechanisms for forming a metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor structure are provided. The metal-insulator-metal capacitor structure includes a substrate. The MIM capacitor structure also includes a CBM layer formed on the substrate, and the CBM layer includes a bottom barrier layer, a main metal layer and a top barrier layer. The MIM capacitor structure further includes a first high-k dielectric layer formed on the CBM layer, an insulating layer formed on the first high-k dielectric layer and a second high-k dielectric layer formed on the insulating layer. The MIM capacitor structure also includes a CTM layer formed on the second high-k dielectric layer, and the CBM layer includes a bottom barrier layer, a main metal layer and a top barrier layer.

Abstract: Embodiments of mechanisms for forming a memory device structure are provided. The memory device includes a first gate stack structure. The first gate stack structure includes a first dielectric layer over a semiconductor substrate. The first gate stack structure also includes a first floating gate over the first dielectric layer, and the first floating gate has a tip corner. The first gate stack structure further includes a second dielectric layer conformally covering an upper surface and sidewalls of the first floating gate. The second dielectric layer has a substantially uniform thickness. In addition, the first gate stack structure includes a first control gate over the second dielectric layer and partially over the first floating gate.
