Capacitance Extraction of 3-D Conductor Systems in Dielectric Media with High-Permittivity Ratios

چکیده
We describe a perturbation formulation for the problem of computing electrostatic capacitances of multiple conductors embedded in multiple dielectric materials. Unlike the commonly used equivalent-charge formulation (ECF), this new approach insures that the capacitances are computed accurately even when the permittivity ratios of the dielectric materials are very large. Computational results from a three-dimensional multipole-accelerated algorithm based on this approach are presented. The results show that the accuracy of this new approach is nearly independent of the permittivity ratios and superior to the ECF for realistic interconnect structures.

Electrostatics and heat conduction in high contrast composite materials
We present a robust integral equation method for the calculation of the electrostatic and thermal properties of systems made of piecewise homogeneous, high contrast materials. By high contrast, we mean that the electrical or thermal conductivity ratios are high. Our approach involves a modification of the standard integral representation using, in electrostatic terms, the polarization charge as...

Continuous carbon fiber polymer–matrix composites in unprecedented antiferroelectric coupling, as enabled by stacking composites with positive value (up to 400) and negative value (down to -600) of the electric permittivity, provide exceptionally high through-thickness permittivity up to 78,000 (B2.0 MHz), corresponding to a capacitance of 370 lF/m. The high capacitance is consistent with the e...
