ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device includes a capacitor with an MIM structure, by which the dimensional accuracy of the device is improved, and a stable capacitance value is given. The semiconductor device100includes: a semiconductor substrate102; a capacitor forming region130in which an MIM capacitor is formed, which has an insulating interlayer104formed on the semiconductor substrate102, a first electrode110, and a second electrode112, and the first electrode110and the second electrode112are arranged facing each other through the insulating interlayer104; and a shielding region132which includes a plurality of shielding electrodes114formed in the outer edge of the capacitor forming region130and, at the same time, set at a predetermined potential in the same layer as that of the MIM capacitor on the semiconductor substrate102, and shields the capacitor forming region130from other regions.
