ABSTRACT:
A method for manufacturing a patterned bottom electrode in a piezoelectric device comprises the steps of providing a basic material and producing a layer structure of a conductive material on the basic material. A protective layer is applied on the layer structure over an area. Thereafter, a planarization layer is applied on the protective layer and on the basic material. A portion of the protective layer is then exposed by patterning the planarization layer. Subsequently, the pattern is planarized by removing the portions of the planarization layer remaining outside the portion such that the protective layer laterally abuts on the planarization layer in a flush manner and forms a planar surface. The protective layer is then removed along with a corresponding part of the planarization layer laterally arranged in a flush manner. This results in the layer structure and the remaining planarization layer forming a planar surface.
