Abstract
A capacitor having a plurality of layers with at least one layer including a plurality of electrodes is described. In an embodiment, the electrodes are elongate. The plurality of electrodes includes a plurality of first polarity electrodes and a plurality of second polarity electrodes. In an embodiment, pairs of electrodes are formed by twisting one first polarity electrode and one second polarity electrode together. In an embodiment, first polarity electrodes and second polarity electrodes are woven together in each layer.
