Benefits of technology

[0032]Specifically, the aforementioned film layer formation step forms, at high efficiency, the film layer having a dense structure and a high dielectric constant, in which the metal is dispersed in the matrix of the dielectric material. In the aforementioned thermal treatment step, thermal treatment of the thus-formed dense film layer, and migration of the metal in the film layer associated with the thermal treatment can suppress impairment of properties (e.g., dielect...

Abstract

The dielectric device includes a substrate, a lower electrode, a dielectric layer, and an upper electrode. The lower electrode is bonded onto the substrate. The dielectric layer is bonded onto the lower electrode. The dielectric layer is obtained through thermal treatment of a film layer formed by spraying of a powdery dielectric material and a fine-particulate metal. In the thus-formed film layer, the metal is dispersed in the matrix of the dielectric material. Thermal treatment of the film layer causes migration of the metal in the film layer. This metal migration causes a lower-electrode-adjacent portion and upper-surface-adjacent portion of the dielectric layer to have different metal contents.
