Abstract
Various embodiments include methods and integrated circuit structures. In some cases, a method of forming an integrated circuit structure can include: forming an opening in a low-k dielectric layer; filling the opening with a high-k dielectric material; patterning the low-k dielectric layer outside of the opening and the high-k dielectric layer to form an interconnect opening within the low-k dielectric layer and a capacitor opening within the high-k dielectric layer; and filling the interconnect opening and the capacitor opening with a metal to form an interconnect in the low-k dielectric layer and a capacitor in the high-k dielectric layer.
