Abstract

A metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor structure includes source and drain regions formed within a semiconductor substrate, a first conducting layer formed over the source and drain regions, and a dielectric layer formed over the first conducting layer. The MIM capacitor structure further includes a second conducting layer formed over the dielectric layer, and a sidewall dielectric formed adjacent the first conducting layer and the dielectric layer. An electric field is created indirectly through the sidewall dielectric to an adjacent field effect transistor (FET) channel in the semiconductor substrate.
