Abstract
A solid state electrical energy state storage device includes multiple dielectric layers or an integral heterogeneous dielectric layer. Layers or portions of the heterogeneous layer have permittivity augmented by exposing the dielectric material to electric/magnetic fields during formation of the dielectric before complete solidification. Such exposure results in radicals and/or an ordered matrix. A dielectric for the device may contain a new xylene based polymer formed under atmospheric conditions via reaction with monatomic oxygen and provided an augmented permittivity through exposure of the polymer to a magnetic field and/or an electric field during condensation and solidification on a substrate.
Claims16
A solid state electrical energy state storage device comprising:
- a pair of conductive electrodes, including a first electrode and a second electrode, the first electrode and second electrode being parallel and spaced apart by an intervening space;
- and
- a primary dielectric comprised of a primary dielectric material, being disposed between the pair of conductive electrodes within the intervening space, and having a first surface adjacent to the first electrode and an opposite second surface adjacent to the second electrode;
- and
- a secondary dielectric layer comprised of a secondary dielectric material, being disposed between and in contact with the first surface of the primary dielectric and the first electrode, the secondary dielectric layer having an augmented permittivity, which is permittivity that is augmented by exposing the secondary dielectric material, or a precursor thereof, to a magnetic field, an electric field, or both during formation of the secondary dielectric material before the secondary dielectric material has fully solidified.
