Abstract

In a method of making a solid electrolytic capacitor using an oxide film of an electrochemical valve metal as the dielectric and having, as solid electrolytes, first and second conducting polymer layers formed successively on the oxide film, the first and second conducting polymer layers are formed by chemical oxidative polymerization processes using an oxidizing agent, and the first conducting polymer layer (3) is formed from a compound having a lower reaction rate than the compound used to form the second conducting polymer layer (4).
