Abstract
A metallization that includes a composite of alternating metal and metal oxide layers for incorporation into feedthrough filter capacitor assemblies is described. The feedthrough filter capacitor assemblies are particularly useful for incorporation into implantable medical devices such as cardiac pacemakers, cardioverter defibrillators, and the like, to decouple and shield internal electronic components of the medical device from undesirable electromagnetic interference (EMI) signals.
