ABSTRACT:
An obstacle is opposed to a lower electrode of a metal-insulator-metal capacitor so as to form a gap therebetween, thereafter, insulating material is deposited so as to fill the gap and form a dielectric layer of the metal-insulator-metal capacitor; even if the deposition does not achieve a conformal step coverage, the insulating material in the gap surely isolates the lower electrode from the upper electrode, and the lower electrode is never short-circuited with the upper electrode.
