Capacitor device with multi-layer dielectric structure

Abstract

Structures of a semiconductor device structure are provided. The semiconductor device structure includes a first insulating layer formed over a semiconductor substrate and an interconnect structure formed in the first insulating layer. The semiconductor device structure also includes a second insulating layer formed over the first insulating layer and a capacitor device embedded in the second insulating layer. The capacitor device includes a first capacitor electrode layer electrically connected to the interconnect structure, a capacitor insulating stack formed over the first capacitor electrode layer and a second capacitor electrode layer formed over the capacitor insulating stack. The capacitor insulating stack includes first layers alternatingly stacked with second layers. The dielectric constant of the first layer is different than the dielectric constant of the second layer.
