ABSTRACT:
At least an embodiment of the present technology provides a capacitor, comprising a substrate, a first solid electrode disposed on the substrate, a second electrode broken into subsections, the subsections connected by a bus line and separated from the first electric by a dielectric medium. The second electrode broken into subsections may have a lower resistance than the first solid electrode and by changing the width and length of the sides of the subsections, the resistance of the first electrode is modifiable.
