Which material has highest dielectric strength?

Open in App

Solution

The maximum dielectric strength, measured is $1 \times 10^{12} M V / m$ in a perfect vacuum.
The electrical power of insulating material is referred to as its dielectric strength.
The ideal electrical insulator is a vacuum since it has no components that could break down.

Q. A capacitor has a capacitance of

50 p F

, which increases to

with a dielectric material between its plates. What is the dielectric constant of the material?

A parallel plate capacitor is to be designed with a voltage rating 1 kV, using a material of dielectric constant 3 and dielectric strength about 10⁷ Vm⁻¹. (Dielectric strength is the maximum electric field a material can tolerate without breakdown, i.e., without starting to conduct electricity through partial ionisation.) For safety, we should like the field never to exceed, say 10% of the dielectric strength. What minimum area of the plates is required to have a capacitance of 50 pF?
