An attempt is made to achieve an upward leap in the capacitance of a capacitor of MIM structure and further improvements in the reliability of a semiconductor device. A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device has a step of forming an amorphous silicon film on the surface of a lower electrode of a capacitor, a step for roughening the silicon film, to thereby form rough polysilicon, and a step for etching metal film of a lower electrode while the rough polysilicon is taken as a mask, thereby roughening the surface of the lower electrode. Through the foregoing steps, the surface of a lower electrode of a capacitor of MIM (metal/insulator/metal) structure is formed roughly, thereby increasing the surface area of the capacitor. Thus, a large-capacitance capacitor of MIM structure can be fabricated.
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device having a capacitor of metal-insulator-metal structure, the capacitor comprising an upper metal electrode, a lower metal electrode, and a capacitive dielectric film formed between said upper and lower metal electrodes, wherein the surface of said lower metal electrode is rough and said lower metal electrode is formed on a surface of a hole or trench formed in an interlayer insulating film, the method comprising the steps of:
