Three electrolytic capacitors with capacitance values of 2200 microfarads, 1000 microfarads and 470 microfarads. The arrows on the canisters are pointing to the capacitors negative ends

Assorted capacitors. A capacitor is similar to a battery in that it is designed to store and release electrons. It has two terminals (electrodes)

Dismantled capacitor. This is a device designed to store and release electric charge. The charge is stored in a rolled up cylinder of material seen at centre (brown)

Capacitor. This device is designed to store and release electric charge. It can release its charge faster than a battery, but unlike a battery it cannot produce electricity but can only store it

Polychlorinated biphenyl molecule. Molecular model of the polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) 3, 4, 5, 3 4 5 -hexachlorobiphenyl

Exploring the fascinating world of dielectrics, let's delve into the realm of Perovskite minerals. The molecular models C016 / 5803 and C016 / 5802 represent these minerals, known for their unique crystal structure. In the realm of electronics, dielectrics play a crucial role in capacitors, like the three electrolytic capacitors and assorted capacitors in this image. A dismantled capacitor reveals its inner workings, while a single capacitor stands ready to store an electric charge. However, it's important to note that not all they are created equal. Some, like the polychlorinated biphenyl molecule, have gained notoriety for their harmful effects on the environment. As we continue to advance in technology, it's essential to understand the properties and implications of various dielectric materials.
