Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a structure of a capacitor, in particular to a structure of a semiconductor metal capacitor; the invention also relates to an etching method of a semiconductor metal capacitor. Background technique
[0002] In the process of semiconductor manufacturing, it is often necessary to grow a dielectric layer and a titanium nitride metal film on the metal aluminum line to form a metal capacitor. Metal capacitors require specific etching procedures to give them the desired shape. The structure of metal capacitors before etching can be found in figure 1 . The lowermost layer is a metal layer 7 of titanium / titanium nitride, above which there is a metal layer 6 of metal aluminum, and a layer of metal layer 5 of titanium / titanium nitride is further formed on the top of the metal aluminum layer 6. The above three layers 5, 6 , 7 jointly form the lower electrode 4 of the metal capacitor. On the lower electrode 4 is a dielectric layer 3 as...
