Abstract: A monolithic chip capacitor in which the electrode layers are bonded together at an edge. The capacitor includes an electrically conductive substrate that is electrically connected to the bonded edges of the electrode layers. The capacitor body has end terminal surfaces defined by electrically conductive material across one end of the body that is in electrically conducting contact with the substrate. In one form, the termination material is a folded end of the substrate itself. In another form, an end cap which can be thicker than the substrate, is folded to define the termination surface and to provide another surface in good electrical contact with the substrate.

Abstract: Capacitors comprising at least one electrode pair, the electrodes of the pair, and the electrode pairs, if more than one, being separated by a dielectric member, said dielectric member comprising a polymer of at least one polyacrylate polyether pre-polymer. The capacitor structure may comprise a single dielectric coating separating two electrodes, or it may comprise a plurality of alternating electrode layers and dielectric coatings.

Abstract: A miniature monolithic capacitor, and a composite sheet from which such capacitors are cut, in which very thin layers of electrode material are stacked between coatings of dielectric with the electrode layers being substantially thickened through their edge portions so that the termination surfaces of the capacitor includes dielectric and the cross section of the thickened edges, thus facilitating edge termination of the capacitor using conventional techniques.

Abstract: Novel electrical capacitors comprise two electrodes separated by a dielectric member, said dielectric member comprising a polymer of at least one polyfunctional acrylate. The capacitor structure may constitute a single dielectric coating separating two electrode layers, or may comprise a plurality of alternating electrode layers and dielectric coatings.
