Abstract

The invention provides a semiconductor device, a metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor and a method for manufacturing the same, wherein the method comprises the following steps: depositing a first metal layer on a semiconductor substrate and patterning the metal layer; depositing a passivation layer on the first metal layer and forming a connecting line hole thereon by etching; depositing a dielectric layer on the surfaces of the passivation layer and the connecting line hole and etching part of the dielectric layer; covering and depositing a second metal layer on the surfaces of the dielectric layer and the passivation layer; and using the first metal layer as a lower electrode plate and the second metal layer as an upper electrode plate. The MIM capacitor combines the upper electrode plate metal layer with a metal interconnection layer, reduces the space occupied in the semiconductor device, avoids influencing the photosensitive property of edge pixels in a pixel array, and can achieve the aim of reducing lateral light crosstalk by arranging the position and the number of the connecting line hole reasonably.
