Abstract
A semiconductor device and a method for making a semiconductor device having a pillar-shaped capacitor storage node compatible with a high dielectric film, wherein the pillar-shaped capacitor storage node includes a thick conductive metal layer that is easily etched and a thin conductive layer completely coating the thick conductive metal layer. The thin conductive layer protects the thick conductive metal layer during subsequent high dielectric deposition and annealing and various oxidation process.
