<p>An improved thin-film capacitor and methods for forming the same on a surface of a substrate are disclosed. The capacitor includes a bottom conducting plate formed by depositing conductive material within a trench of an insulating layer and planarizing the conducting and insulating layers. A dielectric film is then deposited on the substrate surface, such that at least a portion of the dielectric material remains over the bottom conducting plate. A second conductive layer is then deposited over the surface of the substrate, patterned and etched such that at least a portion of the second conducting material resides over at least a portion of the dielectric material.</p> |
