Abstract
The semiconductor device comprises a device isolation region formed in a semiconductor substrate, a lower electrode formed in a device region defined by the device isolation region and formed of an impurity diffused layer, a dielectric film of a thermal oxide film formed on the lower electrode, an upper electrode formed on the dielectric film, an insulation layer formed on the semiconductor substrate, covering the upper electrode, a first conductor plug buried in a first contact hole formed down to the lower electrode, and a second conductor plug buried in a second contact hole formed down to the upper electrode, the upper electrode being not formed in the device isolation region. The upper electrode is not formed in the device isolation region, whereby the short-circuit between the upper electrode and the lower electrode in the cavity can be prevented.
