Abstract: A capacitor includes a first metal layer disposed on a wafer or substrate, a first polarized dielectric layer above the first metal layer and comprising a plurality of electrets formed by aligning molecular dipoles throughout a three-dimensional surface area of a polarizable dielectric material during polarization by applying a momentary electric field of positive or negative polarity, a second metal layer disposed on the first polarized dielectric layer to electrically isolate the first polarized dielectric layer, and a second polarized dielectric layer above the second metal layer, the second polarized dielectric layer comprising a plurality of electrets formed by aligning molecular dipoles throughout a three-dimensional surface area of a polarizable dielectric material during polarization by applying a second momentary electric field of opposing polarity.
Abstract: A method of forming a high energy density capacitor comprises depositing a first metal layer on a substrate, depositing a first layer of polarizable dielectric material comprised of a high K dielectric material on said first metal layer, and applying a momentary high voltage electric field of positive or negative polarity above said first layer of polarizable dielectric material forming an electret. The method further comprises depositing a second metal layer on said first layer of polarizable dielectric material, depositing a second layer of polarizable dielectric material comprised of a high K dielectric material onto said second metal layer, and applying a second momentary high voltage electric field of opposing polarity above said second layer of polarizable dielectric material to align dipoles of the second layer into one or more electrets that will oppose a main electric field created as the capacitor is charging.
