Abstract

The present invention provides a capacitor having a first structure made of a metal layer and a second structure made of the same metal layer and a dielectric layer between the first and the second metal structure, wherein the dielectric layer has a relative permittivity greater than 4, in particular greater than 6. It also provides a monolithically integrated circuit including such a capacitor and optionally other components. A method of manufacturing such a capacitor is also provided.
