Appeal No. 2002-1167
Application No. 09/089,445
The appellants state that the claims stand or fall in four
groups (brief, page 4). The only claims separately argued by the
appellants, however, are claims 9 and 14 with respect to the
rejection over Cho in view of Zahurak (brief, page 8), and claims 9
and 14 are not rejected over this combination of references. We
therefore limit our discussion to one claim to which each rejection
applies, i.e., claim 4 for the first two rejections and claim 23
for the third rejection. See In re Ochiai, 71 F.3d 1565, 1566 n.2,
37 USPQ2d 1127, 1129 n.2 (Fed. Cir. 1995); 37 CFR
§ 1.192(c)(7)(1997).
Rejections of claim 4 over Cho or Wu, in view of Zahurak
Cho discloses a capacitor (col. 1, line 8) comprising a double
sided electrode (207), a first conductive layer (208) in contact
with an inner side of the double sided electrode (figure 2F), a
second dielectric layer (210) in contact with the first dielectric
layer and the outer side of the double sided electrode (figure 2F),
and a second conductive layer (211), wherein the second dielectric
layer is between the first conductive layer and the second
conductive layer (figure 2F). Cho does not disclose the
appellants’ first dielectric layer.
Wu discloses a capacitor (col. 1, line 11) comprising a double
sided electrode (22), a first conductive layer (22a) in contact
