Hi Wikis, born 1942, after study electronic engineering I was busy for passive components in the industry since 1968. My special interest are capacitors. Retired some years ago I am now trying to bring my knowledge into Wiki articles. The reason and my motivation:

Capacitors are a good example of the fact that even the simplest device can become complicated given 250 years of evolution. (Citation J. Ho, T. R. Jow, St. Boggs, Historical Introduction to Capacitor Technology) I first wrote my articles in German. With a lot of help for correct English from friendly and helpful Wiki colleagues I was involved in the followig English articles:




 * Types of capacitor (No German article available)
 * Ceramic capacitor >>> Keramikkondensator
 * Film capacitor >>> Kunststoff-Folienkondensator
 * RFI/EMI capacitor (pending) >>> Entstörkondensator
 * Power capacitor (pending) >>> Leistungskondensator
 * Electrolytic capacitor >>> Elektrolytkondensator
 * Aluminum electrolytic capacitor >>> Aluminium-Elektrolytkondensator
 * Tantalum capacitor >>> Tantal-Elektrolytkondensator
 * Niobium capacitor >>> Niob-Elektrolytkondensator
 * Polymer capacitor >>> Polymer-Elektrolytkondensator [
 * Capacitor plague >>> Capacitor Plague
 * Supercapacitor >>>Superkondensator
 * Lithium ion capacitor >>> Lithium-Ionen-Kondensator
 * Double-layer capacitance, >>> Doppelschichtkapazität
 * Double layer (interfacial), >>> Elektrochemische Doppelschicht Doppelschicht
 * Pseudocapacitance >>> Pseudokapazität
 * Pseudocapacitor, >>> Pseudokondensator
 * Nano capacitor (pending) >>> Nanokondensator
 * Variable Capacitor (pending) >>> Variabler Kondensator
 * Dielectric absorption >>> Dielektrische Absorption
