Capacitor and method for fabricating the same
View Patent ↗A capacitor structure and a method of fabricating the capacitor structure wherein. The lower electrode and the upper electrode are constructed to be separated from each other by a predetermined interval and to be engaged with each other using a series of alternating ridges so that an effective surface area can increase within a limited area.
1. A method of fabricating a capacitor, comprising:
patterning polysilicon on a substrate;
performing an ion implantation process in which ions are implanted in the patterned polysilicon, the implanted ions including first conductivity type impurity ions and second conductivity type impurity ions forming a first region in which the first conductivity type impurity ions are implanted, a second region in which the second conductivity type impurity ions are implanted, and a third region in which the first conductivity type impurity ions and the second conductivity type impurity ions are simultaneously implanted wherein the third region is a boundary region between the first region and the second region;
forming a silicide layer on the first region and the second region;
etching the third region to expose the substrate; and
forming a dielectric layer in the etched third region.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the dielectric layer is a silicon nitride layer.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first region and the second regions of the polysilicon are separated by a predetermined interval and are engaged with each other in a series of alternating ridges.
4. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:
depositing and patterning to form a gate electrode of a MOS transistor on the substrate,
wherein the polysilicon patterning is performed simultaneously with the depositing and patterning to forming the gate electrode.
5. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:
forming, by ion implantation, a source/drain of a MOS transistor on the substrate,
wherein the first region is formed simultaneously with the ion implantation of the source/drain.
6. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:
forming a silicide self-aligned to surfaces of a gate electrode and source/drain of a MOS transistor on the substrate,
wherein the silicide layer is formed simultaneously with the self-aligned silicide.
7. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:
depositing an etch stop layer for forming a contact of a MOS transistor on the substrate,
wherein the dielectric layer is formed simultaneously with the etch stop layer.
