Abstract:
Provided is a capacitor structure including a substrate, a cup-shaped lower electrode, a top supporting layer, a capacitor dielectric layer, and an upper electrode. The cup-shaped lower electrode is located on the substrate. The top supporting layer surrounds the upper portion of the cup-shaped lower electrode. The top supporting layer includes a high-k material. Surfaces of the cup-shaped lower electrode and the top supporting layer are covered by the capacitor dielectric layer. A surface of the capacitor dielectric layer is covered by the upper electrode.

Claim (Index 7):
A method of manufacturing a capacitor structure, comprising:\n forming a bottom supporting layer and a template layer on a substrate in order; forming a cup-shaped lower electrode in the bottom supporting layer and the template layer, wherein a top surface of the template layer is lower than a top surface of the cup-shaped lower electrode to form a recess on the template layer; conformally forming a top supporting layer on the substrate; forming a dielectric pattern on the top supporting layer to expose a portion of a surface of the top supporting layer located on the template layer; forming an opening in the top supporting layer and the template layer by using the dielectric pattern as a mask; performing a mold stripping step to expose an inner surface and an outer surface of the cup-shaped lower electrode; forming a capacitor dielectric layer on the inner surface and the outer surface of the cup-shaped lower electrode and the surface of the top supporting layer; and forming an upper electrode on a surface of the capacitor dielectric layer.
