Mim capacitor and mim capacitor fabrication for semiconductor devices

Abstract

In a particular embodiment, a method of forming a metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor includes removing, using a lithographic mask, a first portion of an optical planarization layer to expose a region in which the MIM capacitor is to be formed. A second portion of an insulating layer is formed on a first conductive layer that is formed on a plurality of trench surfaces within the region. The method further includes removing at least a third portion of the insulating layer according to a lift-off technique.
