Researchers at UC Santa Barbara have discovered what limits our ability to reduce the size of capacitors, often the largest components in integrated circuits, down to the nanoscale. They have answered ...

Once upon a time I was a real mad scientist. I was into non-conventional propulsion with the idea of somehow interacting with the quantum vacuum fluctuations, the zero point energy field. I was into ...

A capacitor made out of the precious metal tantalum. The silver-gray tantalum beads, in the form of compacted powder, can store a lot of charge relative to their mass. This enables smaller capacitors ...

The new Type CMT multilayer ceramic chip capacitor is designed for the computer, telecommunications, contract manufacturing, industrial and automotive markets. Specifically engineered for filtering in ...

Capacitors are small devices used to store electric charges and consist of one or more pairs of conductors separated by an insulator. They’re mainly used in energy-storing devices such as televisions, ...

The Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and several collaborating institutions have ...

Scientists have developed a novel process to identify a record-breaking material for film capacitors, which are needed for safe, reliable electric vehicles and are used in many energy technologies.

Santa Barbara, California – October 12, 2006 -- Researchers at UC Santa Barbara have discovered what limits our ability to reduce the size of capacitors, often the largest components in integrated ...
