A high-density low voltage ferroelectric (or paraelectric) memory bit-cell that includes a planar ferroelectric or paraelectric capacitor. The memory bit-cell comprises 1T1C configuration, where a plate-line is parallel to a word-line, or the plate-line is parallel to a bit-line. The memory bit-cell can be 1TnC, where ‘n’ is a number. In a 1TnC bit-cell, the capacitors are vertically stacked allowing for multiple values to be stored in a single bit-cell. The memory bit-cell can be multi-element FE gain bit-cell. In a multi-element FE gain bit-cell, data sensing is done with signal amplified by a gain transistor in the bit-cell. As such, higher storage density is realized using multi-element FE gain bit-cells. In some examples, the 1T1C, 1TnC, and multi-element FE gain bit-cells are multi-level bit-cells. To realize multi-level bit-cells, the capacitor is placed in a partially switched polarization state by applying different voltage levels or different time pulse widths at the same voltage level.

A method of forming an array of capacitors comprises forming rows and columns of horizontally-spaced openings in a sacrificial material. Fill material is formed in multiple of the columns of the openings and lower capacitor electrodes a are formed in a plurality of the columns that are between the columns of the openings comprising the fill material therein. The fill material is of different composition from that of the lower capacitor electrodes. The fill material is between a plurality of horizontally-spaced groups that individually comprises the lower capacitor electrodes. Immediately-adjacent of the groups are horizontally spaced apart from one another by a gap that comprises at least one of the columns of the openings comprising the fill material therein. The sacrificial material is removed to expose laterally-outer sides of the lower capacitor electrodes. A capacitor insulator is formed over tops and the laterally-outer sides of the lower capacitor electrodes. Upper capacitor electrode material is formed over the capacitor insulator and the lower capacitor electrodes. A horizontally-elongated conductive line is formed atop individual of the groups that directly electrically couple together the upper capacitor electrode material there-below in that individual group.
