Abstract

A semiconductor memory device suitable for forming a capacitor using a high dielectric film for a highly integrated semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate, an insulating film having a contact hole, the insulating film being over the semiconductor substrate, a conductive film on the semiconductor substrate through the contact hole, the conductive film having a top portion acting as a diffusion barrier, a first electrode over the conductive films, a dielectric film over the first electrode, and a second electrode over the dielectric film.
