In a conventional semiconductor device provided with a conventional
stacked type ferroelectric capacitor, there has been caused a problem of
capacitor degradation by leakage between an upper electrode and a lower
electrode via an etching reside, when the efficiency of utilization of a
surface area is increased by decreasing the interval between the
capacitors in the in-plane direction of the substrate, as a result of the
one-step annealing of the laminated from of lower electrode
film/ferroelectric film/upper electrode film.The present invention
prevents leakage caused by short circuit between the lower electrode and
the upper electrode, by forming plural lower electrodes, forming a
ferroelectric film so as to cover the surface and sidewall surface of the
lower electrodes and forming an upper electrode on the ferroelectric film
so as to oppose with the lower electrodes. Further, as a result of
forming the ferroelectric film so as to cover the lower electrodes
continuously and by setting the interval between the lower electrodes and
the thickness of the ferroelectric film to satisfy a predetermined
relationship, the surface of the ferroelectric film is planarized and
exposure of the sidewall is suppressed. Thereby, degradation of the
capacitor is prevented.
