Nanomechanical systems developed at TU Wien have now reached a level of precision and miniaturization that will allow them to ...

Thin-film capacitors do not perform as well as electrostatic theory predicts. New atomistic calculations show that the culprit isn't defects in the film, but poor screening in the metal electrodes. An ...

One of the standard types of components in electronic circuits is capacitors, and often occurring in practical circuits are the complicated combinations of capacitors. When we connect two capacitors ...

Single-cell EC capacitors can reach 50,000 + farads. Daniel O'Brien, North American Capacitor Corp., Greencastle, Ind. All capacitors consist of two metallic electrode plates separated by an ...

Portland, Ore. – Using conventional materials-processing technology as a foundation, researchers at the University of California-Davis have developed nanotube-based thin films to build capacitors with ...

Giovanni D’Amore discusses approaches to characterising both dielectric and magnetic materials using impedance analysers and specialist fixtures. We are used to thinking about technological progress ...
