Abstract

To provide a hybrid capacitor with improved electrical quality and reproductivity, and to provide a method of manufacturing the same.SOLUTION: A capacitor comprises a working element. The working element comprises an anode including a first dielectric body on the anode, a cathode, and a conductive separator provided between the first dielectric body and cathode. The conductive separator comprises a separator and a first conductive polymer. The first conductive polymer at least partially encapsulates the separator. A second conductive polymer at least partially encapsulates the first conductive polymer. The first conductive polymer has a higher conductivity than the second conductive polymer. An anode lead is in electrical contact with the anode, and a cathode lead is in electrical contact with the cathode.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
