Abstract

Disclosed herein a thin film capacitor that includes a lower electrode layer, an upper electrode layer, and a dielectric layer disposed between the lower electrode layer and the upper electrode layer. The lower electrode layer includes a first metal layer positioned on a side facing the dielectric layer and a second metal layer positioned on a side facing away from the dielectric layer. The first metal layer has a first surface positioned on a side facing the second metal layer and a second surface positioned on a side facing the dielectric layer. The first surface has a surface roughness higher than that of the second surface. The second metal layer reflects a surface property of the first surface.
