Abstract: Removal of fine particles by oxidation or/and sulfur poisoning recovery control may be required when an internal combustion engine has been in an extremely low load state for a predetermined period or more. In this case, the engine speed of the internal combustion engine (1) is adjusted to a range where the temperature of a filter (20) can be raised by heat-up control.

A main electrode layer in a cathode is formed so as to have the PTC function. Different from a conventional electrolytic capacitor manufacturing method of connecting a PTC thermistor to a capacitor element to give the PTC function to an electrolytic capacitor so that an electrolytic capacitor manufacturing process is complicated and the number of manufacturing processes is increased by the amount corresponding to the PTC thermistor connecting process, the process of connecting the PTC thermistor to the capacitor element is unnecessary. Consequently, complication of the electrolytic capacitor manufacturing process and increase in the number of manufacturing processes caused by the PTC thermistor connecting process can be prevented.

Abstract: A solid electrolytic capacitor having significantly lowered its ESL is provided. In solid electrolytic capacitor elements adjacent each other in the solid electrolytic capacitor in accordance with the present invention, their respective anodes are connected to each other by an anode conduction path of a conduction path pair, whereas their respective cathodes are connected to each other by a cathode conduction path of the conduction path pair. Therefore, when electrons migrate between the solid electrolytic capacitor elements, respective currents directed opposite from each other flow through a pair of substantially parallel conduction paths. Consequently, a magnetic field caused by the current flowing through one conduction path is offset by a magnetic field caused by the current flowing through the other conduction path, whereby both magnetic fields cancel each other out. Hence, the solid electrolytic capacitor lowers its ESL.
