Abstract
A method for manufacturing an electrode of a capacitor used in a semiconductor device, wherein a support insulating layer, an etch stop layer including a tantalum oxide layer, and a mold sacrificial insulating layer are sequentially formed on a semiconductor substrate. The mold sacrificial insulating layer, the etch stop layer and the support insulating layer are sequentially patterned to form a three-dimensional mold for a storage node. A storage node layer is formed to cover the inner surface of the mold. Next, storage nodes for capacitors are formed by dividing the storage node layer. The residual mold sacrificial insulating layer is removed by selectively wet etching, using the tantalum oxide layer as an etch stopper.
