One of the standard types of components in electronic circuits is capacitors, and often occurring in practical circuits are the complicated combinations of capacitors. When we connect two capacitors ...

Of course, we all know that capacitors are conceptually two conductors separated by a dielectric of some sort. But outside of air-variable capacitors you normally don’t see them looking like that. For ...

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 ...

Three packs of supercapacitors (in the blue package), consisting of six D-size cells each 18 cells total were able to provide and store the same amount of electrical energy as the smaller pack of six ...

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 ...

The batteries we rely on for everything from our cars to our cell phones use a chemical reaction to store and release an electrical charge. The chemicals involved force a large number of tradeoffs in ...
