Capacitor and method for fabricating the same

摘要

A capacitor includes lower electrode, capacitive insulating film, upper electrode and passivation film that are formed in this order on a substrate. The capacitive insulating film is made of an insulating metal oxide, the metal oxide being a ferroelectric or a dielectric with a high relative dielectric constant. At least one contact hole is formed in the passivation film to connect the lower electrode to an interconnect for the lower electrode or the upper electrode to an interconnect for the upper electrode. The opening area of the contact hole is equal to or smaller than 5 mum2.
