Dielectrics are of two types: (i) Non-Polar Dielectrics: When the centre of positive charge coincides with the centre of negative charge in a molecule, e.g., Nitrogen, Oxygen, CO 2 etc. (ii) Polar ...
Variable capacitors may be useful, but the air gap that provides their capacitance is their greatest weakness. Rather than deal with the poor dielectric properties of air, some high-end variable ...
