The size of a capacitor affects how much charge it can store (its capacitance), its voltage rating, and its physical ...

Among the abundance of components making up electronic circuits, very few are as important as capacitors. These components, taking the form of conductive plates separated by an insulating material ...

When choosing a capacitor for any application, there are a few key characteristics that must be understood in order to analyze its suitability for the circuit. In a simple capacitor equivalent circuit ...

Capacitors are among the simplest of electronic components – in theory – but the practical implementation is becoming more complex, says Christian Merkel. Capacitors are two conducting plates, ...

Matching several capacitors, without needing a really precise value, can be accomplished with a "high-tech" laboratory capacitance meter. But this is cumbersome and overkill, and not everyone has one.

It's "adsorb" not "absorb" (paragraph 2). Adsorption is a surface effect, whereas absorption implies one substance permeating the other. Grammar nit-pick aside, this sounds like a pretty cool tech.

As the economy continues to change, chances are good that you’re examining every aspect of your business for ways to improve your bottom line. A significant opportunity may be found by taking a close ...

Individual pieces of graphene have some pretty amazing properties, but finding a way to produce bulk materials that make good use of those properties has been rather challenging. Now, researchers have ...
