A process for forming a laminate with capacitance and the laminate formed thereby. The process includes the steps of providing a substrate and laminating a conductive foil on the substrate wherein the foil has a dielectric. A conductive layer is formed on the dielectric. The conductive foil is treated to electrically isolate a region of conductive foil containing the conductive layer from additional conductive foil. A cathodic conductive couple is made between the conductive layer and a cathode trace and an anodic conductive couple is made between the conductive foil and an anode trace.

Substrate with embedded patterned capacitance

An improved method for forming a capacitor. The method includes providing a carrier with a channel therein, providing a metal foil with a valve metal with a first dielectric on a first face of the metal foil, securing the metal foil into the channel with the first dielectric away from a channel floor, inserting an insulative material between the metal foil and each side wall of the channel, forming a cathode layer on the first dielectric between the insulative material, forming a conductive layer on the cathode layer and in electrical contact with the carrier, lap cutting the carrier parallel to the metal foil such that the valve metal is exposed, and dice cutting to form singulated capacitors.

Channel method for forming a capacitor

An improved method for forming a capacitor. The method includes the steps of: providing a metal foil; forming a dielectric on the metal foil; applying a non-conductive polymer dam on the dielectric to isolate discrete regions of the dielectric; forming a cathode in at least one discrete region of the discrete regions on the dielectric; and cutting the metal foil at the non-conductive polymer dam to isolate at least one capacitor comprising one cathode, one discrete region of the dielectric and a portion of the metal foil with the discrete region of the dielectric.
