Thin-film capacitors for computer chips

Applications for nanocomposites include thin-film capacitors for computer chips. Thin film capacitors are electrical capacitors with an insulating film as the dielectric, combined with paper as carrier of the electrodes. The dielectric thin films are provided with electrodes. The electrodes of film capacitors may be metalized with aluminium or zinc applied directly to the surface of the plastic film. Two of these conductive layers are wound into a cylinder-shaped winding, layered as multiple single layers stacked together, to form a capacitor body. Film capacitor has very low ohmic losses and a very low parasitic inductance, which makes it suitable for AC power applications. [Pg.457]
