• A capacitor is a device that stores electric charge and potential energy. The capacitance C of a capacitor is the ratio of the charge stored on the capacitor plates to the the potential difference between them: (parallel) This is equal to the amount of energy stored in the capacitor. The E surface. 0 is the electric field without dielectric.
Dielectrics - Non-conducting materials between the plates of a capacitor. They change the potential difference between the plates of the capacitor. -The dielectric layer increases the maximum potential difference between the plates of a capacitor and allows to store more Q. insulating material subjected to a large electric field.
In order for a capacitor to hold charge, there must be an interruption of a circuit between its two sides. This interruption can come in the form of a vacuum (the absence of any matter) or a dielectric (an insulator). When a dielectric is used, the material between the parallel plates of the capacitor will polarize.
There is another benefit to using a dielectric in a capacitor. Depending on the material used, the capacitance is greater than that given by the equation C = εA d by a factor κ, called the dielectric constant. A parallel plate capacitor with a dielectric between its plates has a capacitance given by C = κε0A d(parallelplatecapacitorwithdielectric).
