Method for manufacturing an extended-wing capacitor and the extended-wing capacitor

Abstract

This is related to a method for the manufacture of a capacitor with wing extensions and the capacitor device. The method comprises: (1) causing multiple contact areas to be disposed in alternate positions, such that two adjacent contact areas are complements of each other, (2) depositing electroplating base material (EBM) over the contact area, (3) electroplating a conductive material on the sidewalls of the EBM slab to form plate electrode; and then (4) etching back the EBM leaving only the electrode portion. The capacitor formed by the above method has a larger surface area on the electrode compared with that made by the conventional method, and the cell capacitance is also better. This method is especially effective for the manufacture of high-density memory device.
