Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a device that includes: a semiconductor substrate; a first insulating layer over a surface of the semiconductor substrate; first and second contact plugs each including side and upper surfaces, the side surfaces of the first and second contact plugs being surrounded by the first insulating film, the upper surfaces of the first and second contact plugs being substantially on the same plane with an upper surface of the first insulating layer; a second insulating layer over the first insulating layer; a first conductive layer including a bottom portion on the first contact plug and a side portion surrounded by the second insulating layer; a third insulating layer over the first conductive layer; and a second conductive layer on the second contact plug, a part of a side surface of the second conductive layer being surrounded by both the second and third insulating layers.

Claim (Index 9):
A semiconductor device comprising:\n a first conductive layer including a side surface and an upper surface: a second conductive layer including a side surface and spaced from the first conductive layer; a first insulating layer extending from a part of the side surface of the first conductive layer in contact therewith and terminating at a part of the side surface of the second conductive layer in contact therewith; and a second insulating layer extending from a remaining part of the side surface of the first conductive layer in contact therewith and terminating at another part of the side surface of the second conductive layer in contact therewith, the second insulating layer being elongated over the upper surface of the first conductive layer to cover the first conductive layer, wherein the second conductive layer protrudes upwardly from the second insulating layer and serves as a lower electrode of a capacitor, the capacitor comprising a third conductive layer serving as a upper electrode and surrounding the second conductive layer, and a capacitor insulating film intervening between the second and the third conductive layers.
