Capacitors
A parallel plate capacitor made of a dielectric material sandwiched
between two electrodes
C = eoerA/d
C is the capacitance , er the relative dielectric permittivity
A the area of the electrode, d the thickness of the dielectric
High volume efficiency arises from large relative dielectric
permittivity, large area, and small thickness
BaTiO3 very high er  small disk capacitor
(> 50 % of the ceramic capacitor market)
The Volume Efficiency greatly enhanced by
