Abstract
A capacitor structure is fabricated by forming a bottom plate, forming a dielectric layer overlaying the bottom plate, and forming a top plate over the dielectric layer. In addition, at least one insulating sidewall spacer that protects the dielectric layer during processing is formed along the perimeter of the top plate and overlaying a portion of the dielectric layer.
