The electron transport properties of graphene devices are critical to many applications, but our understanding of these properties is still incomplete, in spite of rapid advances in recent years. One ...

The capacitance of a classical conductor is determined solely by its geometry. When charged, the electrons distribute in space in a manner that minimizes their electrostatic energy. Quantum mechanics ...

Most simple circuits you'll find for measuring reactive components cover only a limited range of component values. Here's a circuit built from a handful of inexpensive parts that will let you measure ...

Capacitive sensors are found in a wide range of equipment, from consumer electronics to industrial/process control. Touch buttons are increasingly found in lamps and dimmers. Motion detectors can ...

An optimal way to determine an op amp's input capacitance. Steps involved in making the input-capacitance measurement. 1. With a series resistor at the op-amp input, the input capacitance of the op ...

This paper defines a method to measure the chip die pad capacitance using time delay reflectometry (TDR). This method is useful for measuring the low-value capacitance that is present at the end of a ...

As discussed in the first part of the article, the accuracy with which sensor capacitance can be measured using absolute capacitance measurement has a significant dependency on the accuracy of the ...

Megger’s new CDAX 605 test set measure capacitance and dissipation factor at high voltages. Faster and easier to use than self-balancing capacitance bridges, the CDAX 605 combines an exceptionally ...
