CAPACITOR AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17715389 titled 'CAPACITOR AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a capacitor design that includes a lower electrode, an upper electrode, and a dielectric layer between them. The dielectric layer consists of a TiO layer and a leakage current reducing layer made of GeO. The purpose of the leakage current reducing layer is to effectively reduce the leakage current while minimizing the decrease in the dielectric constant of the dielectric thin-film.

Original Abstract Submitted
A capacitor including a lower electrode; an upper electrode apart from the lower electrode; and a between the lower electrode and the upper electrode, the dielectric including a dielectric layer including TiO, and a leakage current reducing layer including GeOin the dielectric layer. Due to the leakage current reducing layer, a leakage current is effectively reduced while a decrease in the dielectric constant of the dielectric thin-film is small.
