Mainstream capacitor technology

What makes a capacitor a good investment?

There is also a certain comfort level among engineers at the capacitor manufacturer with working with materials they know and whose reactions they have come to understand over decades of trial and error. It is for this reason that the investments in the existing dielectrics have created the most value for the shareholder over time.

How did nanotechnology improve the surface area of ceramic capacitors?

For example, surface area in ceramic capacitors was increased through the development of advanced processing methods for barium titanate—the true application of nanotechnology and a major success in the sales and marketing of an advanced technology breakthrough. A radical improvement in the effective capacitance per gram of ceramic capacitor.

What are high-density silicon capacitors?

Additionally, high-density silicon capacitors are developed with a semiconductor MOS process and are using the third dimension to substantially increase the capacitor surface and thus its capacitance without increasing the capacitor footprint.

Can dielectric film improve the voltage performance of a capacitor cell?

In traditional dielectric films, such as polypropylene and polyester, we see the successful application of segmented film that enhances the voltage performance of the finished capacitor cell. What Holds the Most Promise: 2019-2025?

Which technology developments affect capacitance development?

Other technology developments that affect capacitance development can be considered new dielectric materials that have smaller total available markets, but higher levels of profitability and are either driven by the needs of a specific niche and narrow supply chain, or a competitive solution to existing, patented technology.

What is the roadmap in electronic capacitance?

Understanding the roadmap in electronic capacitance begins with the fact that it is fundamental, that all electronic and electrical circuits require the addition of capacitance to operate (resistance as well).
