Abstract

A solid electrolytic capacitor includes an anode element made of a valve action metal, a dielectric oxide film formed on a surface of the anode element, a solid electrolytic layer formed on a surface of the dielectric oxide film, and a cathode layer formed on a surface of the solid electrolytic layer. The solid electrolytic layer has an iron concentration not greater than 100 ppm. Alternatively or in combination therewith, a weight fraction of residues in the solid electrolytic layer is smaller than 5 wt %. The polymerization residue is an oxidizing agent and a monomer that is produced when such solid electrolytic layer is formed.
