Results for tag: "Silicon Capacitors"

Silicon capacitors are a type of capacitor that uses silicon as the dielectric material. They are used in a variety of applications, including power supplies, audio equipment, and automotive electronics. Silicon capacitors are known for their high capacitance, low leakage current, and low ESR (equivalent series resistance). They are also highly reliable and have a long life expectancy. Silicon capacitors are typically manufactured using a combination of silicon dioxide, silicon nitride, and other materials. The manufacturing process involves depositing a thin layer of silicon dioxide on a substrate, followed by the deposition of a thin layer of silicon nitride. The two layers are then bonded together using a high-temperature annealing process. The global market for silicon capacitors is expected to grow steadily in the coming years, driven by the increasing demand for electronic components in consumer electronics, automotive, and industrial applications. Some of the major companies in the silicon capacitors market include Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd., TDK Corporation, AVX Corporation, KEMET Corporation, and Vishay Intertechnology, Inc.
