Dielectrics topics include: Dielectric materials properties and types, dielectric polarisation, polarisation types, dielectric breakdown, ferroelectricity and piezoelectricity. In electromagnetism, a dielectric is a non-metallic substance that can be polarized by an applied electric field. Dielectrics are also known as insulators because they are the opposite of conductors.  Dielectrics can be solids, liquids, gases, or vacuums. Some examples of solid dielectric materials include: Ceramics, Paper, Mica, Glass.  Dielectrics can be used as electrical insulating mediums between two... Show more
