Abstract

Provided is a technique in which a carbon structure is first coated with a tie layer as a intermediate prior to the deposition of metal on a carbon substrate. The tie layer is composed of a material with structural and chemical affinity for both carbon and metal. Capacitor electrodes formed according to this technique show very low Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) and improved capacitance at high frequencies.
