1. An electronic component, comprising:
a first conductive layer;
a nonconductive layer on the first conductive layer, the nonconductive layer having a hole through the nonconductive layer;
a second conductive layer on the nonconductive layer; and
an electrical connection conductively connecting the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer, which are electrically
insulated from one another by the nonconductive layer, wherein the electrical connection is formed by at least one nanotube
in the hole, the nanotube being a grown nanotube.
