Abstract
To provide a thin film capacitor having high adhesion with respect to a circuit substrate. A thin film capacitor includes: a metal foil having a roughened upper surface; a dielectric film covering the upper surface of the metal foil and having an opening through which the metal foil is partly exposed; a first electrode layer contacting the metal foil through the opening; and a second electrode layer contacting the dielectric film without contacting the metal foil. An angle θa formed by the other main surface of the metal foil and a side surface thereof is more than 20° and less than 80°. The side surface is thus tapered at an angle of more than 20° and less than 80°, so that it is possible to suppress warpage and to enhance adhesion with respect to a multilayer substrate when the thin film capacitor is embedded in the multilayer substrate.
