Abstract

Decoupling structures are provided. The decoupling structures may include first conductive patterns, second conductive patterns and a unitary supporting structure that structurally supports the first conductive patterns and the second conductive patterns. The decoupling structures may also include a common electrode disposed between ones of the first conductive patterns and between ones of the second conductive patterns. The first conductive patterns and the common electrode are electrodes of a first capacitor, and the second conductive patterns and the common electrode are electrodes of a second capacitor. The unitary supporting structure may include openings when viewed from a plan perspective. The first conductive patterns and the second conductive patterns are horizontally spaced apart from each other with a separation region therebetween, and none of the openings extend into the separation region.
