Zusammenfassung: | A capacitor includes a first electrode, a dielectric layer, and a second electrode that are sequentially stacked. The dielectric layer has a stacked layer structure including a predetermined number of hafnium oxide sublayers and predetermined number of tantalum oxide sublayers. The number, materials, and thicknesses of the sublayers are determined so that the thickness ratio has a range in which, in voltage-leakage current characteristics showing the relationship between the voltage between the first and second electrodes and the leakage current, a start voltage at which the slope of an increase in the current starts to discontinuously increase satisfies an electric field strength of 3 [MV/cm] or more when the ratio of the total thickness of the predetermined number of tantalum oxide sublayers to the total thickness of the dielectric layer is varied, and the thickness ratio is within the range such that the start voltage is within the range. |
