Abstract:
A capacitor, comprising:a flexible substrate; an external leader electrode connecting to an upper electrode and a lower electrode located on said flexible substrate with a gap between said electrodes so that electrodes are not electrically connected to each other; a dielectric extending over a top surface of said external leader electrode and a top surface of said lower electrode; and an upper electrode located opposite said lower electrode and extending across said dielectric, wherein: said dielectric has a hole portion comprising a surface that inclines from a side that faces a bottom surface of said upper electrode to a side that faces the top surface of said external leader electrode, said hole portion has an inclined wall surface having at least partly a portion extending from a lower end to an upper end of the inclined wall surface at an inclination between 0.1 and 20Â° with respect to the top surface of said external leader electrode, and said upper electrode is recessed at a portion located along the inclined wall surface of the hole portion of said dielectric, thereby connecting the top surface of said external leader electrode.
