ABSTRACT:
A capacitor (20) is fabricated using a ferroelectric material (28) such as a layered perovskite material of the Aurivillius family. The capacitor (20) has a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) of capacitance. When used in an electrical device other than a memory device in place of a conventional capacitor, the PCT capacitor (20) provides inherent temperature compensation of the signal of the device when the device is operated at different temperatures below the Curie temperature of the ferroelectric material.
