Electronic symbol. In electrical engineering, a capacitor is a device that stores electrical energy by accumulating electric charges on two closely spaced surfaces that are insulated from each other. The capacitor was originally known as the condenser, [1] a term still encountered in a few compound names, such as the condenser microphone.
For single dielectric materials, it appears to exist a trade-off between dielectric permittivity and breakdown strength, polymers with high E b and ceramics with high ε r are the two extremes [15] g. 1 b illustrates the dielectric constant, breakdown strength, and energy density of various dielectric materials such as pristine polymers, …
The capacitance C C of a capacitor is defined as the ratio of the maximum charge Q Q that can be stored in a capacitor to the applied voltage V V across its plates. In other words, capacitance is the largest amount of charge per volt that can be stored on the device: C = Q V (8.2.1) (8.2.1) C = Q V.
The expression in Equation 8.10 for the energy stored in a parallel-plate capacitor is generally valid for all types of capacitors. To see this, consider any uncharged capacitor (not necessarily a parallel-plate type). At some instant, we connect it across a battery ...
