摘要
In this work, metal-insulator-metal-insulator-metal (MIMIM) on-chip capacitor is fabricated newly using CU/SiO(2) backend technology. Capacitance density 1.7 fF/mum(2) has been achieved with satisfactory dc and RF characteristics. Compared with conventional metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor, MIMIM doubles the capacitance density without weakening capacitor's quality in both dc and RF characteristics. And, its yield is predictable. Therefore, it has been approved to be a convenient and reliable method to improve capacitance density for on-chip standard Cu/SiO(2) backend technology.
