ABSTRACT:
A method for fabricating a vertical parallel plate capacitor is provided. In the method, a sacrificial layer is formed on at least a portion of a surface. A dielectric layer is conformally formed on the sacrificial layer and an exposed portion of the surface. The dielectric layer is etched so as to leave substantially only a fence of dielectric material along a sidewall of the sacrificial layer. The sacrificial layer is removed, and a conductive layer is deposited on the fence and surface. The conductive layer is etched and planarized so as to form a first capacitor plate along one side of the fence, and a second capacitor plate along the other side of the fence, the first and second capacitor plates being substantially parallel to each other, and transverse sections of the capacitor plates including elongated portions substantially normal to the surface.
