Capacitors for semiconductor devices and methods of fabricating such capacitors are provided The disclosed capacitor comprises an interlayer dielectric layer (ILD) pattern having an opening exposing a portion of the underlying semiconductor substrate, a silicide pattern formed on the exposed substrate, and a lower electrode covering an inner wall and bottom of the opening. A dielectric layer is formed on the lower electrode, and an upper electrode is disposed on the dielectric layer. The dielectric layer preferably comprises a high k-dielectric layer such as tantalum oxide. The disclosed method comprises forming an ILD pattern with an opening that exposes a portion of a semiconductor substrate forming an optional silicide pattern on the exposed substrate, forming a lower electrode on the inner wall of the opening and sequentially forming a dielectric layer and an upper electrode on the resulting structure.
