Abstract:
An electrical component comprising:a first elongated dielectric layer having superposed over a first surface thereof a metal layer substantially co-extensive with said first surface and over a second surface thereof opposite said first surface a heat-seal layer coextensive with said second surface; a second elongated dielectric layer having superposed over a first surface thereof a metal layer substantially co-extensive with said first surface and over a second surface thereof opposite said first surface a heat-seal layer coextensive with said second surface; and at least one terminal connected to each of said metal layers; wherein said first and said second elongated dielectric layers are superposed with the heat-seal layer of the second dielectric layer in contact with the metal layer of the first dielectric layer and are wound together to form a substantially cylindrical structure, and wherein each of said dielectric layers and said heat-seal layers superposed thereon has a combined thickness of between about 0.5 &mgr;m and about 500 &mgr;m and wherein said heat-seal layer constitutes between about 0.5% and about 40% of said combined thickness.
