ABSTRACT:
Methods are provided for robust and cost effective techniques to fabricate a semiconductor device having double-sided hemispherical silicon grain (HSG) electrodes for container capacitors. In an embodiment, this is accomplished by forming a layer of hemispherical silicon grain (HSG) polysilicon over interior surfaces of a polysilicon layer of a container formed in a substrate. The top portion of the polysilicon layer may be nitridized.
