ABSTRACT:
A method for fabricating a metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor includes providing a substrate comprising a bottom electrode, forming a dielectric layer positioned on the bottom electrode, and forming a top electrode positioned on the dielectric layer. The dielectric layer includes a silicon nitride film, the silicon nitride film has a plurality of Si—H bonds and a plurality of N—H bonds, and a ratio of Si—H bonds to N—H bonds being equal to or smaller than 0.5.
