To provide a thin film capacitor having high adhesion performance with respect to a multilayer substrate. A thin film capacitor includes: a metal foil having a roughened upper surface; a dielectric film covering the upper surface of the metal foil and having an opening through which the metal foil is partly exposed; a first electrode layer contacting the metal foil through the opening; and a second electrode layer contacting the dielectric film without contacting the metal foil. A height of the first electrode layer is lower than a height of the second electrode layer. This enhances adhesion performance when the thin film capacitor is embedded in a multilayer substrate and improves ESR characteristics.
