In the above-mentioned conventional method for manufacturing a lower electrode, the former method utilizes the size of crystal grains caused by abnormal growth of polysilicon, and the latter method uses the vicinity of a crystal grain boundary. Utilizing the fact that the oxidation rate is higher than that of the polysilicon film surface, there is a limit to the degree of unevenness of the polysilicon film surface. For this reason, there is a problem that the increase in the surface area is only about 2.5 times as compared with the ordinary method, and it is difficult to cope with further miniaturization of the device.

As described above, the surface area is increased by forming the grooves 5 and increasing the unevenness of the surface of the polysilicon film 3 serving as the lower electrode. About 2 to 3 times the capacitance value of the stack capacitance portion using the uneven surface of the polysilicon film.

Although the hydrofluoric acid aqueous solution is used to remove the film 4, in the second embodiment, dry etching using hydrofluoric anhydride (HF) gas is performed to remove the SiO 2 film 4. Other manufacturing methods are the same as in the first embodiment.

The reason for using hydrofluoric anhydride gas in the second embodiment is as follows. When an aqueous solution containing hydrofluoric acid is used as in the first embodiment, a natural oxide film grows on the surface of the polysilicon film 3 when washing with water after etching the SiO 2 film. Therefore, when a silicon nitride film for a capacitor insulating film is grown, a natural oxide film exists between the polysilicon film as the lower electrode and the silicon nitride film, and a high capacitance value cannot be obtained. Therefore, using hydrofluoric anhydride (HF) gas as in the second embodiment,
Since the growth of the natural oxide film on the surface of the polysilicon film for the lower electrode is suppressed, a capacitive insulating film having a high capacitance value can be formed.

In the above embodiment, the polysilicon film for the lower electrode is a polysilicon film grown by an ordinary method. However, the polysilicon film having a large surface irregularity formed at 530 to 580 ° C. described in the prior art is used. The effect of the present invention does not change even if it is used, or if a phosphorus-doped polysilicon film or a phosphorus-doped amorphous silicon film is used. In addition, an electrode material other than the polysilicon film, for example, a refractory metal such as silicide or tungsten may be freely used for the upper electrode.

As described above, according to the present invention, since the surface shape of the polysilicon film for the lower electrode can be made finer and the degree of unevenness can be increased as compared with the conventional method, it is possible to reduce the surface roughness of the polysilicon film. There is an effect that a lower electrode having a surface area of about 3 times can be formed. Accordingly, a high capacitance value can be secured without reducing the thickness of the capacitance insulating film, so that the effect of facilitating the application of the stack capacitance portion to a fine device is facilitated.
