First Embodiment
[0033] Referring to
[0034] Firstly, the capacitor unit 1 includes a plurality of stacked capacitors 11, and each of the stacked capacitors 11 has a positive part P and a negative part N. Further, the plurality of stacked capacitors 11 are sequentially stacked, and each of the two stacked capacitors 11 can be electrically connected to each other through the conductive adhesive G, and the plurality of positive part P of the plurality of stacked capacitors 11 are separated from each other without contact. For example, as shown in
[0035] Furthermore, as shown in
[0036] Further, the capacitor unit 1 further includes a plurality of insulating fillers 12, each of which is filled around the corresponding first porous corrosion region 1100a. For example, the insulating filler 12 is surroundingly formed around an outer surface of the oxide layer 111 of the first porous corrosion region 1100a and between the first portion 101 and the negative part N of the stacked capacitor 11 to block moisture from passing through the first porous corrosion region 1100a. The insulating filler 12 can be covered between the first portion 101 and the negative part N of the stacked capacitor 11 (as shown in
[0037] In addition, the stacked capacitor 11 may also include a metal foil, an oxide layer, a conductive polymer layer, a carbon adhesive layer, and a silver adhesive layer. For example, the oxide layer is formed on the outer surface of the metal foil to completely cover the metal foil. The conductive polymer layer is formed on the oxide layer to partially cover the oxide layer. The carbon adhesive layer is formed on the conductive polymer layer to cover the conductive polymer layer. The silver adhesive layer is formed on the carbon adhesive layer to cover the conductive polymer layer. According to different use requirements, the metal foil may be aluminum, copper or any metal material, and the surface of the metal foil has a porous corrosion layer, so that the metal foil may be a corrosion foil with a porous corrosion layer. When the metal foil is oxidized, an oxide layer is formed on the surface of the metal foil, and the metal foil on which the oxide layer is formed may be referred to as a valve metal foil. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
[0038] Further, the stacked capacitor 11 may further include a surrounding barrier layer, and the surrounding barrier layer is surroundingly formed on an outer surface of the oxide layer. For example, the distance of an outer peripheral surface of the surrounding barrier layer relative to the oxide layer may be greater than, less than, or equal to the distance of an outer peripheral surface of the silver adhesive layer relative to the oxide layer. In addition, an end of the conductive polymer layer, an end of the carbon adhesive layer, and an end of the silver adhesive layer contact or separate the surrounding barrier layer so that the length of the conductive polymer layer, the length of the carbon adhesive layer, and the length of the silver adhesive layer are all limited by the surrounding barrier layer. In addition, according to different usage requirements, the surrounding barrier layer can be an insulating layer made of any insulating material such as epoxy or silicon. It is worth noting that the stacked capacitor 11 may not use a surrounding barrier layer depending on different usage requirements. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
[0039] Furthermore, the package unit 2 includes an insulating package body 20 partially covering the capacitor unit 1, and the capacitor unit 1 has a first portion 101 and a second portion 102 exposed from the package unit 2. That is, the first portion 101 and the second portion 102 of each of the stacked capacitors 11 are exposed by the insulating package body 20 without being covered. For example, the insulating package body 20 can be made of any insulating material such as epoxy or silicon. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
[0040] Further, the electrode unit 3 includes a first electrode structure 31 and a second electrode structure 32. Furthermore, the first electrode structure 31 can serve as a first outer end electrode to cover the first portion 101 of the capacitor unit 1 and electrically contact the positive part P of the stacked capacitor 11. In addition, the second electrode structure 32 can serve as a second outer end electrode to cover the second portion 102 of the capacitor unit 1 and electrically contact the negative part N of the stacked capacitor 11. In other words, the first electrode structure 31 can serve as an outer end electrode to cover one end of the capacitor unit 1 and electrically contact one of the positive part P and the negative part N of the stacked capacitor 11, and the second electrode structure 32 can serve as the other outer end electrode to cover the other side end of the capacitor unit 1 and electrically contact the other of the positive part P and the negative part N of the stacked capacitor 11.
[0041] Thereby, the first electrode structure 31 as the first outer end electrode and the second electrode structure 32 as the second outer end electrode can be used to cover the first portion 101 and the second portion 102 of the stacked capacitor 11, respectively (that is, the first electrode structure 31 and the second electrode structure 32 do not need to be inserted into the interior of the insulating package body 20 like electrode pins of a lead frame). Therefore, the first electrode structure 31 and the second electrode structure 32 of the electrode unit 3 can be quickly formed on opposite side ends of the insulating package body 20 without performing any bending step (step of bending the electrode pins of the lead frame), so as to effectively improve a productivity of the stacked capacitor assembly structure Z.
Second Embodiment
[0042] Referring to
[0043] For example, the first inner conductive layer 311 and the second inner conductive layer 321 may both include an Ag layer (or other conductive material similar to Ag) or a composite layer including an Ag layer and a conductive diffusion barrier layer. The first intermediate conductive layer 312 and the second intermediate conductive layer 322 may both be Ni layers or other conductive materials similar to Ni, and the first outer conductive layer 313 and the second outer conductive layer 323 may both be Sn layers or other conductive materials similar to Sn. In addition, the conductive diffusion barrier layer is selected from a combination of carbon (C), carbon compounds, carbon nanotubes, graphene, silver (Ag), gold (Au), platinum (Pt), palladium (Pb), titanium nitride (TiNx), titanium carbide (TiC), and other antioxidant materials; however, the present disclosure is not limited thereto. By the conductive diffusion barrier layer, external moisture cannot pass through the electrode unit 3 and enter the capacitor unit 1, thereby improving airtightness and weather resistance of the stacked capacitor assembly structure Z. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
Third Embodiment
[0044] Referring to
[0045] For example, the first electrode structure 31 may further include the conductive water resistance layer 310 formed on the contact surface of the first electrode structure 31, the plurality of positive parts P and the plurality of insulating fillers 12. Further, the conductive water resistance layer 310 is formed by sputtering to cover and shield the plurality of positive part P and the plurality of insulating fillers 12. Since the conductive water resistance layer 310 is formed by sputtering, the conductive water resistance layer 310 covers a plurality of positive part P and a plurality of insulating fillers 12 with a coverage of 100%, the coverage area can be free of any pores, and effectively prevents external moisture and oxygen from entering the capacitor unit 1 through the electrode unit 3, thereby achieving the effect of blocking water and blocking oxygen. Thereby, the airtightness and weather resistance of the stacked capacitor assembly structure Z can be improved. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
