A process of forming a capacitor structure includes providing a substrate. Next, a first electrode is deposited onto the substrate. Later, a water-based ALD process is performed to deposit a transitional amorphous TiOlayer on the first electrode. Subsequently, the transitional amorphous TiOlayer is treated by oxygen plasma to transform the entire transitional amorphous TiO2 layer into a rutile TiOlayer. Finally, a second electrode is deposited on the rutile TiOlayer.
