AI Customer ServiceDielectrics are used in capacitors in order to increase the capacitance. This is because dielectrics increase the ability of the medium between the plates to resist ionization, which in turn increases the capacitance. Dielectrics are basically insulators, materials that are poor conductors of electric current.
As we discussed earlier, an insulating material placed between the plates of a capacitor is called a dielectric. Inserting a dielectric between the plates of a capacitor affects its capacitance. To see why, let’s consider an experiment described in Figure 8.5.1.
Dielectric fluids with higher dielectric constants, such as electrical grade castor oil, are often used in high voltage capacitors to help prevent corona discharge and increase capacitance. Because dielectrics resist the flow of electricity, the surface of a dielectric may retain stranded excess electrical charges.
A common example of a dielectric is the electrically insulating material between the metallic plates of a capacitor. The polarisation of the dielectric by the applied electric field increases the capacitor's surface charge for the given electric field strength.
A thin dielectric is ideal for a component’s total capacitance, dependent on the following equation: C = εA/d Here C is the total capacitance, ε is the permittivity, A is the separated area between electrodes, and d is the distance between these two areas. So as d approaches 0, the capacitance will approach infinity, at least in theory.
A parallel plate capacitor with a dielectric between its plates has a capacitance given by \ (C=\kappa\epsilon_ {0}\frac {A} {d}\\\), where κ is the dielectric constant of the material. The maximum electric field strength above which an insulating material begins to break down and conduct is called dielectric strength.
