Capacitors are energy storage devices, consisting of two electrodes and an electrolyte, that are capable of rapid charging and discharging because of charge adsorption and desorption properties at the ...

The explosions of electrolytic capacitors is caused by applying the reverse voltage to the element (for it is a polarized element), thereby causing the dielectric layer to ...

A research team at Washington University in St. Louis has developed a technology that can create a capacitor with 19 times higher energy density than commercially available capacitors. According to ...

Researchers believe they’ve discovered a new material structure that can improve the energy storage of capacitors. The structure allows for storage while improving the efficiency of ultrafast charging ...

A research group has successfully developed a high-capacity capacitor, an energy storage device -- using a solid electrolyte with high deformability -- that can operate at high temperatures. With this ...
