Patent ID: 7091101

Claim:
A method of forming a device, comprising: forming a capacitor, wherein forming the capacitor includes: forming an opening in a substrate assembly, wherein the opening extends to a first surface of an interconnect recessed within the substrate assembly; forming a non-smooth mold in the opening and on the first surface of the interconnect; removing a portion of the non-smooth mold from the first surface of the interconnect; forming a first electrode on the non-smooth mold and the first surface of the interconnect, wherein the first electrode is formed to include at least one non-smooth surface and is formed from a material selected from the group consisting of transition metals, conductive metal-oxides, alloys thereof, and combinations thereof; forming a dielectric on the first electrode; heating the dielectric in the presence of an oxygen-containing ambient; and forming a second electrode on the dielectric and an uppermost surface of a substrate assembly, wherein the second electrode is formed to include at least one non-smooth surface.
