NOVELTY - The thin film capacitor useful for electronic components in portable devices e.g. chip capacitors, comprises a first and a second conductive layer, and a dielectric layer disposed between the first and second conductive layers. The dielectric layer with a thickness of 0.01-125 microns comprises first and second polymers cross-linked to the first polymer, and a surface, where the layer is resistant to heat shrinkage and creep when exposed to temperatures of 140-160 degrees C. The capacitor has a capacitance of 0.001-5000 mu F. The conductive layer is disposed on the dielectric layer surface.    USE - The thin film capacitor is useful for small electronic components in portable devices (chip capacitors) and large scale industrial equipment (power capacitors), which is useful in high-voltage power delivery and drive motor controls for trains and hybrid automobiles (100 to 1000+ volts).    ADVANTAGE - The thin film capacitor having dielectric materials is capable of operating in high temperature environments, and is manufactured in cost-effective manner by using polymer materials.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - The thin film capacitor useful for electronic components in portable devices e.g. chip capacitors, comprises a first and a second conductive layer, and a dielectric layer disposed between the first and second conductive layers. The dielectric layer with a thickness of 0.01-125 microns comprises first and second polymers cross-linked to the first polymer, and a surface, where the layer is resistant to heat shrinkage and creep when exposed to temperatures of 140-160 degrees C. The capacitor has a capacitance of 0.001-5000 mu F. The conductive layer is disposed on the dielectric layer surface to form an electrode of the capacitor. The first and second conductive layers are metal foils, which are disposed in a similar plane. The first foil is spaced apart from the second foil to form a center margin between the foils. An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is included for a method for manufacturing a thin film capacitor having a dielectric layer.
