Abstract

A capacitor structure of a semiconductor device which includes a semiconductor substrate, a first metal layer formed on the substrate, and a second metal layer formed on the first metal layer. The first metal layer has a nitridation-treated film along its outer surface. A tungsten film having a rugged surface is formed on the entire outer surfaces of the first and second metal layers. Because of the nitridation-treated film along the first layer, the tungsten film will be uniformly distributed along the first and second metals. A thin dielectric film is then formed on the surface of the tungsten, followed by a third metal layer formed on the dielectric film.
