Abstract

A DRAM capacitor. A first dielectric layer is formed over a substrate having a gate and source/drain regions, and a plug penetrating through the first dielectric layer to couple with the source/drain regions. A bottom electrode comprising a vertical pole, a metal plate, a first spacer and a second spacer is formed and contacts with the plug. A second dielectric layer is formed on the bottom electrode, and then a conductive layer is formed on the second dielectric layer.
