Abstract

A method for forming a capacitive structure in a metal level of an interconnection stack including a succession of metal levels and of via levels, including the steps of: forming, in the metal level, at least one conductive track in which a trench is defined; conformally forming an insulating layer on the structure; forming, in the trench, a conductive material; and planarizing the structure.
