Patent attributes
Conductive lines constituting word lines of memory cells and conductive lines constituting memory cell plate electrodes are formed in the same interconnecting layer in a memory device including a plurality of memory cells each including a capacitor for storing data in an electrical charge form. By forming the capacitors of the memory cells into a planar capacitor configuration, a step due to the capacitors is removed. Thus, a dynamic semiconductor memory device can be formed through CMOS process, and a dynamic semiconductor memory device suitable for merging with logic is achieved. Data of 1 bit is stored by two memory cells, and data can be reliably stored even if the capacitance value of the memory cell is reduced due to the planar type capacitor.
