Abstract
A thin film capacitor is provided with a lower electrode layer, a dielectric layer arranged on the lower electrode layer, and an upper electrode layer formed on the dielectric layer. An insulator patch material, circular when projected from above, is formed at a boundary of the dielectric layer and the upper electrode layer of the thin film capacitor of this invention. The circular insulator patch improves a withstand voltage, by reducing accumulation of charges.
