ABSTRACT:
A high capacity silicon capacitor formed on an integrated circuit substrate includes a metal portion on the substrate; a silicon nitride (SiN) portion sputtered on the metal; a silicon (Si) portion sputtered on the silicon nitride portion, another SiN layer and finally a metal layer. The SiN layers are for increased isolation and are optional.
