Abstract

A method of forming a semiconductor structure includes: a substrate is provided, the substrate at least comprising a conducting layer; a bottom supporting layer and a stacking structure being formed on a top surface of the substrate, the stacking structure including a sacrificial layer and a supporting portion that are sequentially stacked and formed; the stacking structure and the bottom supporting layer are partially etched to expose the conducting layer to form a through hole; the supporting portion of a partial width exposed from a sidewall of the through hole is laterally etched to form an air gap; a protective layer filling the air gap is formed; a lower electrode electrically connected with the conducting layer is formed on the sidewall of the through hole and a sidewall of the protective layer; the sacrificial layer is removed.
