ABSTRACT:
A capacitor construction includes, i) a dense mass of electrically insulative oxide; ii) an electrically conductive inner capacitor plate overlying and contacting the electrically insulative oxide mass; iii) a capacitor dielectric layer overlying the inner capacitor plate and oxide mass, the capacitor dielectric layer comprising a nitride; iv) an electrically conductive outer capacitor plate overlying the capacitor dielectric layer; and v) the dense mass of electrically insulative oxide contacting the inner capacitor plate being characterized by a wet etch rate of less than or equal to about 75 Angstroms/minute in a 100:1 by volume H.sub.2 O:HF solution.
