Patent Abstract

The invention relates to an electronic component with a dielectric (D) and a method for manufacturing the electronic component, in particular an organic field-effect transistor or thin-film capacitor, wherein the dielectric (D) comprises at least a first layer (1) in the form of a low-k layer and at least a second layer (2) in the form of a high-k layer, and according to the invention a third layer (3) with arbitrary dielectric constant is arranged between the first layer (1) and the second layer (2). According to the method, the first layer (1), a third layer (3) with arbitrary dielectric constant and the second layer (2) are applied one on top of the other and thereby the dielectric (D) is produced as a composite of three individual layers brought into contact with one another.
