Abstract From the Canadian patent

A dielectric capacitor having excellent dielectric properties which comprises a silicon oxide layer (4), a lower electrode (12) a ferroelectric layer (8), and an upper electrode (15) formed on a silicon substrate (2). The lower electrode (12) is formed of palladium oxide and so is the upper electrode , (15). Palladium oxide prevents the permeation of oxygen through the dielectric layer (8), thus offering a dielectric capacitor having excellent dielectric properties.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed July 5, 1996 and granted January 1, 2002. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended July 5, 2016.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by July 5, 2018.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
