Abstract
A cell plate (6) is formed on a main surface of a semiconductor substrate (7) with an insulating film (8) interposed therebetween and an interconnection (1) having T-shape cross section is formed on the cell plate (6) with an interlayer insulating film (11) interposed therebetween. An upper insulating film (12) is formed to cover the interconnection (1).
