Abstract

A capacitor includes a first electrode. The first electrode includes a bottom conductive plane and a plurality of first vertical conductive structures. The bottom conductive plane is disposed over a substrate. The capacitor includes a second electrode. The second electrode includes a top conductive plane and a plurality of second vertical conductive structures. The capacitor includes an insulating structure between the first electrode and the second electrode. The first vertical conductive structures and the second vertical conductive structures are interlaced with each other thereby providing higher capacitance density.
