Abstract:
Integrated circuits including metal-insulator-metal capacitors (MIMCAPs) generally include a diffusion barrier layer on the top and bottom surfaces of the electrode and a self-formed oxide layer on sidewalls of the electrode. The diffusion barrier layers and the self-formed oxide layers on the sidewalls of the electrode prevent diffusion of the metal defining the electrode into the interlayer dielectric. Also described are processes for fabricating the MIMCAPs.

Claim (Index 20):
The method of  claim 15 , wherein the dielectric layer comprises oxide-nitride-oxide, SiO 2 , TaO 5 , PSiN x  Si 3 N 4 , SiON, SiC, TaO 2 , ZrO 2 , HfO 2 , Al 2 O 3 , or mixtures thereof.
