Abstract

A metal insulator metal (MIM) capacitor includes a base layer and a copper bulk layer in the base layer. The MIM capacitor further includes an etch stop layer over the base layer and the copper bulk layer and an oxide-based dielectric layer over the etch stop layer. The MIM capacitor further includes a capacitor bottom layer over the oxide-based dielectric layer, an insulator layer over the capacitor bottom layer, and a capacitor top layer over the insulator layer.
