Abstract
A capacitor for a semiconductor device includes a lower electrode, a dielectric layer formed on a lower electrode, and an upper electrode formed on the dielectric layer. The lower electrode includes a first layer having a cylindrical shape and a mesh second layer formed on inner sidewalls and the bottom surface of the first layer. Beneficially, the first layer is connected to a conductive region of a semiconductor substrate by a contact plug. The lower electrode can be formed by injecting a catalyst into an opening in which the cylindrical first layer is to be formed before forming the cylindrical first layer.
