Capacitor Dielectric
Working Principle
Let’s take a look how the dielectric can increase the
capacitance of the capacitor. A dielectric contains
molecules that are polar which means that they can
change their orientation based on the charges on
the two plates. So the molecules align themselves
with the electric field in such a way enabling more
electrons to be attracted to the negative plate,
while repelling more electrons out of the positive
plate.
