Method of fabricating semiconductor memory device

摘要

A method of fabricating a semiconductor memory device comprises the steps of: (a) forming an interlayer insulating film on a semiconductor substrate, opening a contact hole in said interlayer insulating film, and burying a plug in said contact hole; (b) forming a first insulating film on said interlayer insulating film inclusive of said plug, and forming a trench in said first insulating film above said plug; (c) forming a first conductive film on said first insulating film inclusive of said trench, and etching back said first conductive film by a chemical mechanical polishing method to form a bottom electrode inside said trench; (d) forming a high dielectric film or a ferroelectric film and a second conductive film in this order on said first insulating film inclusive of said bottom electrode; and (e) patterning simultaneously said high dielectric film or ferroelectric film and said second conductive film to form a capacitor insulating film and a top electrode.
