Abstract

See full text

A multi-layer capacitor of staggered construction is formed of one or more layers having tapered sidewall(s). The edge(s) of the capacitor film(s) can be etched to have a gentle slope, which can improve adhesion of the overlying layers and provide more uniform film thickness. The multi-layer capacitor can be used in various applications such as filtering and decoupling.
