1. A method comprising:
- substantially aligning at least one capacitor registration feature formed on a first surface of a capacitor with at least one ceramic insulator layer registration feature formed in a ceramic insulator layer;
contacting the ceramic insulator layer to the first surface with the at least one capacitor registration feature and the at least one ceramic insulator layer registration feature in substantial alignment; and
attaching the ceramic insulator layer to the first surface, wherein attaching the ceramic insulator layer to the first surface comprises laminating the ceramic insulator layer to the capacitor at a temperature between about 800°
C. and about 900°
C. and a pressure of between about 800 psi and about 1500 psi.

Abstract
In one example, a capacitor structure may include a capacitor comprising a surface that defines at least one feedthrough aperture and a ceramic insulator layer attached to the surface. The surface of the capacitor may include a capacitor registration feature, and the ceramic insulator layer may include a ceramic insulator layer registration feature. The capacitor registration feature and the ceramic insulator layer registration feature may cooperate to substantially align the ceramic insulator layer to the capacitor, e.g., prior to the ceramic layer being attached to surface of the capacitor.
