Capacitors are passive electrical components that store energy in
an electric field. Applications include electric power
conditioning, signal processing, motor starting, and energy
storage. The maximum charge a capacitor can hold largely depends on
the dielectric material inside. That material is the enabler for
the performance. Ongoing development in fields such as high-power
electronics, renewable energy, hybrid electric vehicles and
electric aircraft, is posing an urgent need for more advanced
electrostatic capacitor technology. This book for researchers in
industry and academia provides an overview of key dielectric
materials for capacitor technology. It covers preparation and
characterization of state-of-the art dielectric materials including
ceramics, polymers and polymer nanocomposites, for the most popular
applications including energy storage, microwave communication and
multi-layer ceramic capacitors. The book begins with an
introduction to electrostatic capacitor technology, then goes on to
cover the following topics: techniques for capacitor dielectrics
characterization; dielectric polymers and dielectric metamaterials
for high energy capacitors; polymer/nanofiller composites;
high-temperature polymer-based dielectrics for electrostatic energy
storage; design and simulations of capacitor dielectrics by
phase-field computations; rational design on polymer dielectrics;
inorganic dielectrics for high-energy-density capacitors; ceramic
dielectrics for microwave communication; ceramic dielectrics for
MLCCs; and finally two chapters on future prospects for polymers
and ceramics.
