Capacitor having an enhanced dielectric breakdown strength

摘要

A capacitor having an enhanced dielectric breakdown strength is obtained from a base dielectric film by coating the base dielectric film on both sides with an adherent coated dielectric film having a dielectric constant that is at least 50 percent higher than that of the base dielectric film and that adheres to the base dielectric film; and wherein metal foil is adherently joined to each of the coated dielectrics films to form electrodes for the capacitor.
