Forming a capacitor, by (a) forming a matrix of ferroelectric capacitor elements on a substrate, (b) forming a CAP layer over the ferroelectric capacitor elements, and (c) etching the CAP layer to a more uniform thickness. A capacitor that has a substrate layer, a matrix of ferroelectric capacitor elements including a first electrode layer substantially fixed relative to the substrate, a second electrode layer, and a ferroelectric layer sandwiched between the first and second electrode layers is disclosed. The capacitor has a shoulder layer extending from the substrate to the matrix, and a CAP layer etched to have substantially constant thickness covering sides of the matrix extending beyond the substrate.
