Abstract
There are contained the steps of forming sequentially a first conductive film, a dielectric film, and a second conductive film on a first insulating film, forming an upper electrode of a capacitor by patterning the second conductive film, patterning the dielectric film to leave under the upper electrode, forming a lower electrode of the capacitor by patterning the first conductive film, covering the capacitor and the first insulating film with a second insulating film, and annealing at least one of the first insulating film and the second insulating film in an inert-gas atmosphere and then exposing the film to an NO plasma.
