  • Publication number: 20240138138
    Abstract: A semiconductor device and a method of manufacturing the same are provided. The semiconductor device includes a substrate, a plurality of capacitors, and a first supporting layer. The plurality of capacitors are disposed on the substrate. Each of the capacitors extends along a first direction. Each of the plurality of capacitors includes a first capacitor electrode, a second capacitor electrode, and a capacitor dielectric separating the first capacitor electrode from the second capacitor electrode. The first supporting layer is disposed on the substrate. The first supporting layer extends along a second direction different from the first direction. The capacitor dielectric includes a first surface and a second surface which are disposed on two opposite sides along the first direction. The second surface is exposed by the first capacitor electrode. The first supporting layer is disposed between the first surface and the second surface of the capacitor dielectric.
