Abstract
A method of manufacturing a capacitor whose top and bottom electrodes have the nearly equal doping concentrations. In the method, a top surface of the capacitor top electrode is polished by a CMP (chemical mechanical polishing) and then doped using the same doping process as the capacitor bottom electrode, so that other elements can be isolated during the doping process. After forming the capacitor bottom electrode, thermal oxidation is performed so that the injected impurity ions of the capacitor bottom electrode are segregated toward a top surface portion thereof. With this method, a doping concentration at the top surface portion of the capacitor bottom electrode becomes higher than that at other portions thereof, and thereby the capacitor top and bottom electrodes may have a nearly same doping concentration at the interface therebetween.
