Abstract

A method of forming a capacitor for a semiconductor memory device, includes the steps of forming first and second insulating layers to form a first contact hole on a substrate, forming a first conductive layer and a third insulating layer within the first contact hole so as to define a second contact hole, forming a second conductive layer within the second contact hole, removing the second and third insulating layers to form a storage electrode, and forming a dielectric layer and a third conductive layer on the storage electrode to form a capacitor.
