What happens when dielectric breakdown occurs?

The dielectric,usually the insulator between the plates of a capacitor, can be overstressed by the application of too high voltages applied to the capacitor plates. The dielectric breaks down and a current flows between the plates until,either they are discharged, or an equilibrium is reached,below the working voltage of the capacitor. If the dielectric is damaged in this process he capacitor must be replaced. Some dielectric material self heal and can recover from an over voltage.


How you reduce capacitor size while keeping the capacitance?

You can reduce the size of the plates (thus making the capacitor smaller physically) if you also do one or both of the following:move the plates closer together (which also reduces size, but lowers the breakdown voltage)use a dielectric with a higher dielectric constantOf course these changes must be made at the time of manufacture, they cannot be done to change an existing capacitor.


What is the material use in the capacitor?

Capacitors are named after their dielectrics. So, an 'air capacitor' uses air as its dielectric, a 'mica capacitor' uses mica as its dielectric, and so on. There are lots of different dielectric used to separate the plates of a capacitor, each with different permittivities and dielectric strengths. As the perfect dielectric (i.e. one with both a very high permittivity and a very high dielectric strength) doesn't occur, the choice of dielectric is always a compromise between it permittivity and dielectric strength.


Is dielectric strength the same as dielectric constant?

No, these are two unrelated properties of a material.
