Abstract
A metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor structure includes a bottom electrode, a first oxide layer adjacent the bottom electrode, and a first high-k dielectric layer over the bottom electrode and the first oxide layer. A middle electrode is over the first high-k dielectric layer and a second oxide layer is adjacent the middle electrode. A second high-k dielectric layer may be over the middle electrode and the second oxide layer, a top electrode may be over the second high-k dielectric layer.
