19.5: Capacitors and Dielectrics
The amount of charge (Q) a capacitor can store depends on two major factors—the voltage applied and the capacitor''s physical characteristics, such as its size. A system composed of two identical, parallel conducting plates …
Introduction to Capacitors, Capacitance and Charge
The capacitor is a component which has the ability or "capacity" to store energy in the form of an electrical charge producing a potential difference (Static Voltage) across its plates, much like a small rechargeable battery.
23.2: Reactance, Inductive and Capacitive
For capacitors, we find that when a sinusoidal voltage is applied to a capacitor, the voltage follows the current by one-fourth of a cycle, or by a (90^o) phase angle. Since a capacitor can stop …

OverviewCapacitor typesHistoryTheory of operationNon-ideal behaviorCapacitor markingsApplicationsHazards and safety
Practical capacitors are available commercially in many different forms. The type of internal dielectric, the structure of the plates and the device packaging all strongly affect the characteristics of the capacitor, and its applications. Values available range from very low (picofarad range; while arbitrarily low values are in principle possible, stray (parasitic) capacitance in any circuit is t…
