Abstract

A method for forming a bottom polysilicon electrode of a stacked capacitor for DRAMs makes use of a double-layered polysilicon structure and a phosphoric acid etching. When the double-layered polysilicon structure is etched with the phosphoric acid, the polysilicon grain boundary is etched at a rate faster than the polysilicon grain itself so as to enable the formation of a rugged surface and thus increases the total surface area.
