Microelectronic fabrication having sidewall passivated microelectronic capacitor structure fabricated therein

摘要

Within a method for fabricating a microelectronic fabrication, and the microelectronic fabrication fabricated employing the method, there is formed within the microelectronic fabrication a capacitor structure which comprises a first capacitor plate layer having formed thereupon a capacitor dielectric layer in turn having formed thereupon a second capacitor plate layer, wherein each of the foregoing layers having an exposed sidewall to thus form a series of exposed sidewalls. The capacitor structure also comprises a silicon oxide dielectric layer formed passivating the series of exposed sidewalls of the first capacitor plate layer, the capacitor dielectric layer and the second capacitor plate layer a silicon oxide dielectric layer.
