Semiconductor memory device having cylinder-type capacitor lower electrode and associated methods

Abstract

A semiconductor memory device including a plurality of supports extending parallel to each other in a first direction on a semiconductor substrate, and capacitor lower electrode rows including a plurality of capacitor lower electrodes arranged in a line along the first direction between two adjacent supports from among the plurality of supports, each capacitor lower electrode including outside walls, wherein each of the capacitor lower electrodes includes two support contact surfaces on the outside walls of the capacitor lower electrode, the support contact surfaces respectively contacting the two adjacent supports from among the plurality of supports.
