Abstract
In the present invention, lower electrodes (101, 102) are disposed at a period d1 in an X direction and at a period d2 in a Y direction. Upper electrodes (102) are disposed so as to be shifted by half the length of the period (d1) in the X direction with respect to the lower electrodes (101), and are disposed so as to be shifted by half the length of the period (d2) in the Y direction with respect to the lower electrodes (101). Each pair of a lower electrode (101) and an upper electrode (102), which face each other and capacitively couple with each other, form a capacitor cell (C). Cell terminals (103, 104) are disposed at the period (d1) in the X direction, disposed at the period (d2) in the Y direction, and respectively electrically connected to the lower electrodes (101) and the upper electrodes (102). The cell terminals (104) are disposed so as to be shifted by half the length of the period (d1) in the X direction with respect to the cell terminals (103), and are disposed so as to be shifted by half the length of the period (d2) in the Y direction with respect to the cell terminals (103).
