Semiconductor device and manufacturing method thereof

Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a substrate, an interconnect, a memory cell, and a plurality of first barrier structures. The interconnect is disposed over the substrate. The memory cell is disposed in the interconnect within a memory region of the substrate, where the memory cell includes a transistor and a capacitor. The transistor includes a gate, source/drain elements respectively standing at two opposite sides of the gate, and a channel disposed between the source/drain elements and overlapped with the gate. The capacitor is disposed over the transistor and electrically coupled to one of the source/drain elements. The plurality of first barrier structures line sidewalls and bottom surfaces of the source/drain elements, and each include a first barrier layer and a second barrier layer disposed between the source/drain elements and the first barrier layer, where a first absorption interface is disposed between the first barrier layer and the second barrier layer.
