The invention comprises capacitors having a capacitor dielectric layer comprising
a metal oxide having multiple different metals bonded with oxygen. In one embodiment,
a capacitor includes first and second conductive electrodes having a high k capacitor
dielectric region positioned therebetween. The high k capacitor dielectric region
includes a layer of metal oxide having multiple different metals bonded with oxygen.
The layer has varying stoichiometry across its thickness. The layer includes an
inner region, a middle region, and an outer region. The middle region has a different
stoichiometry than both the inner and outer regions.
