Abstract
A solid electrolytic capacitor free of short circuits which may be caused by the creeping of a solid electrolyte comprising a conducting polymer, and having high volume efficiency per volume. The solid electrolytic capacitor is constructed by successively forming an oxide film, a solid electrolyte (conducting polymer) and a cathode layer on an anode body which has an anode lead planted thereon. Then heating is applied, by a heater chip, to a part of the solid electrolyte that has crept from the head of the anode body along the anode lead to convert it is insulation, so as to produce a solid electrolyte insulated portion thereby. Or, in another way, the creeping solid electrolyte can be removed by heating with a heater chip and generating a thermal decomposition reaction thereof while supplying sufficient additional oxygen.
