Abstract
A method and structure suitable for, e.g., improving high voltage breakdown reliability of a microelectronic device such as a capacitor usable for galvanic isolation of two circuits. A metal plate having a top surface and a side surface is located over a first dielectric layer. A second dielectric layer of a second different material is located over the first metal plate. A dielectric structure of the first material is located over the side surface of the metal plate and over the surface of the first dielectric layer.
