ABSTRACT:
A method of forming a capacitor structure includes the steps of forming a conductive layer on a microelectronic substrate, and forming a first hemispherical grained silicon layer on the conductive layer opposite the substrate. A protective layer is formed on the hemispherical grained silicon layer. The protective layer, the first hemispherical grained silicon layer, and the conductive layer are then patterned so that portions of the microelectronic substrate are exposed adjacent the patterned conductive layer. A second hemispherical grained silicon layer is formed on the surface of the protective layer opposite the first hemispherical grained silicon layer, on sidewalls of the patterned conductive layer, and on the exposed portions of the microelectronic substrate. Portions of the second hemispherical grained silicon layer are removed from the exposed portions of the microelectronic substrate, and the patterned protective layer is then removed.
