US Patent 11929404 Transistor gates having embedded metal-insulator-metal capacitors

A semiconductor structure comprises a gate structure of a transistor. The gate structure comprises a gate conductive portion disposed on a gate dielectric layer. The semiconductor structure further comprises a capacitor structure disposed on the gate structure. The capacitor structure comprises a first conductive layer, a dielectric layer disposed on the first conductive layer and a second conductive layer disposed on the dielectric layer. The first and second conductive layers are respectively connected to a first contact portion and a second contact portion.
