Abstract:
A capacitor structure includes a first electrode plate disposed on a substrate, a first capacitor dielectric layer disposed on the first electrode plate, and a second electrode plate disposed on the first capacitor dielectric layer. A portion of the first electrode plate extends beyond an end of the second electrode plate to form a step. The capacitor structure also includes an etching stop layer, an inter-metal dielectric layer, a first via and a second via. The etching stop layer is disposed on the second electrode plate. The inter-metal dielectric layer covers the etching stop layer, the second electrode plate, the first capacitor dielectric layer and the first electrode plate. The first via penetrates through the inter-metal dielectric layer to contact the first electrode plate at the portion extending beyond the second electrode plate. The second via penetrates through the inter-metal dielectric layer to contact the second electrode plate.

Claim (Index 9):
A capacitor structure, comprising:\n a first electrode plate disposed on a substrate, wherein the first electrode plate includes a first anti-reflective coating; a first capacitor dielectric layer disposed on the first electrode plate; a second electrode plate disposed on the first capacitor dielectric layer, wherein a portion of the first electrode plate extends beyond an end of the second electrode plate to form a step, and wherein the second electrode plate includes a second anti-reflective coating, and wherein a thickness of the second anti-reflective coating is less than a thickness of the first anti-reflective coating; an inter-metal dielectric layer which covers the second electrode plate, the first capacitor dielectric layer and the first electrode plate; a first via which penetrates through the inter-metal dielectric layer to contact the first electrode plate at the portion extending beyond the second electrode plate; and a second via which penetrates through the inter-metal dielectric layer to contact the second electrode plate.
