The guard-ring type 3-terminal parallel plate electrodes proposed by ASTM D 150-81 and IEC 250 have been widely used for measurement of dielectric constants of solid dielectrics. However the method using this electrodes causes many uncertainty associated with the measurement errors of the diameter of the guarded electrode. the gap between guarded and guard-ring electrode. the distance of two active electrodes(the thickness of specimen), the roughness and contamination of surface of electrode and specimen. close adherence grade of electrode and specimen. In this paper. a new electrode system of cross capacitance type based on Thompson-Lampard theorem is designed and is employed for the measurement of dielectric constant. The results of simulation of guard-ring electrode and cross capacitance electrode using FEM program show that distance measurement between two electrodes in guard-ring electrode produces large uncertainty. on the other hand this effect in cross capacitance electrode is negligible. Furthermore. the air gap effects in the cross capacitance electrode is 5.6 times less sensitive than that in guard-ring electrode by assuming air gap of $50{\mu}m$.

The cross capacitor electrode system applied Thompson-Lampard theorem for precise and accurate measurement of dielectric constants is studied in this study. The capacitance derived from cross capacitor is calculated by the equation of ($C=\frac{{\epsilon}ln2}{\pi}{\cdot}$ effectivelength of electrode) which is very different from the equation of capacitance derived from parallel plate capacitor. From above mentioned reason, the capacitance measurement uncertainty of cross capacitor can be reduced then that of the parallel plate capacitor. the measurement dielectric constant measured by cross capacitor electrode method is one order more accurate and precise than that of 3-electrode method.

In this paper, a method for computing the capacitance parameter for a multi-interconnection line in a multilayered dielectric region is presented. The number of interconnection lines and the number of dielectric layers are arbitrary, and the interconnection lines are finite cross section or infinite cross section. The surface of lines and dielectric interface are divided into subsection. The surface charge density of each subsection is a constant step-pulse function for each subsection. After the solution of surface charge density is effected by the method of moments, capacitance parameter is calculated.

Objectives: The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of smoking on the skin bio-electrical capacitance at twelve source points. Methods: Twenty healthy male subjects were assigned to smoking and sham-smoking by a random cross-over design. Skin bio-electrical capacitance was measured at twelve source points for 10 minutes before and after smoking. The change of skin bio-electrical capacitance was analysed. Results: 1. The skin bio-electrical capacitance at LU9, PC7 and LR3 was significantly increased after smoking. 2. In the smoking group, the skin bio-electrical capacitance at the source points of Hand Yin meridians significantly increased compared to that of Foot Yin and Hand Yang meridians. Conclusions: Smoking significantly increased the skin bio-electrical capacitance at the source points of Lung, Pericardium and Liver meridians. Hand Yin meridians appear to be more vulnerable to smoking than other meridians.

The mechanical integrity of generator stator windings is one of the critical point because the electric power is generated and conducted to power system through these windings. To cool down the heat emitted from generator winding during its operation, a majority of generators use de-mineralized water characterized by high cooling efficiency. Contrary to such the excellent cooling efficiency, however, the damaged bar insulations attributed to the absorption of cooling water in the generator stator winding lead to highly time- and cost consuming efforts as well as to service deterioration due to unexpected forced outage of generator. It is described that the new design of water absorption sensor using cross capacitance for generator in power plant in order to increase the reliability of water absorption diagnostics for generator stator bar insulation.

The design of large area thin film transistor liquid crystal displays (TFT-LCDs) requires consideration of cross-talks between the data lines and pixel electrodes. These limits are imposed by the mutual coupling capacitances present in a pixel. The mutual coupling capacitance causes a pixel voltage error. In this study, semi-empirical model, which is adopted from VLSI interconnection capacitance calculations, is used to calculate mutual coupling capacitances. With calculated mutual coupling capacitances and arbitrary given image pattern, the root mean square (RMS) voltage of pixel is calculated to see vertical cross-talk from the first to the last column. The information obtained this study can be utilized to design the larger area and finer image quality panel.

One of major errors in flow rate measurement for two-phase flow using an Electrical Capacitance Sensor (ECS) concerns sensor sensitivity under temperature raise. The thermal effect on electrical capacitance sensor (ECS) system for air-water two-phase flow monitoring include sensor sensitivity, capacitance measurements, capacitance change and node potential distribution is reported in this paper. The rules of 12-electrode sensor parameters such as capacitance, capacitance change, and change rate of capacitance and sensitivity map the basis of Air-water two-phase flow permittivity distribution and temperature raise are discussed by ANSYS and MATLAB, which are combined to simulate sensor characteristic. The cross-sectional void fraction as a function of temperature is determined from the scripting capabilities in ANSYS simulation. The results show that the temperature raise had a detrimental effect on the electrodes sensitivity and sensitive domain of electrodes. The FE results are in excellent agreement with an experimental result available in the literature, thus validating the accuracy and reliability of the proposed flow rate measurement system.

This paper describes a novel bit line structure to minimize coupling noise induced by coupling capacitance between bit lines. In DRAMs coupling capacitance is inherently present bit lines. As in submicron process the bit line space gets narrower. bit line coupling capacitance increases and this increased coupling capacitance sharply raises cross-talk noise. In this paper using different layers of metal for adjacent bit lines has been tested to reduces cross-talk noise and a novel bit line structure capable of reducing capacitance is introduced and verified.

The design of large area thin film transistor liquid crystal displays (TFT-LCDs) requires consideration of cross-talks between the data lines and pixel electrodes. These limits are imposed by the parasitic capacitive elements present in a pixel. The capacitive coupling of the data line signal onto the pixel causes a pixel voltage error. In this study semi-empirical capacitance model which is adopted from VLSI interconnection capacitance calculations was used to calculate mutual coupling capacitances. With calculated mutual coupling capacitances and given image pattern, the root mean square(RMS) voltage of pixel is calculated to see vertical cross-talk from the first to the last column. The information obtained from this study could be utilized to design the larger area and finer image quality panel.

To establish the national standard of capacitance, four main electrodes of the cross capacitor which were evaluated to linearity and roundness less the $\pm 1 \mu m$ respectively have to be adjusted symmetrically in an inner cylinder. Four LM shafts with diameter of 5 mm were installed between main electrodes of the cross capacitor, and the electrodes were adjusted, as the first step, by means of the measured capacitance. In the second step, the symmetrical adjustment up to $\pm 1.2\mu m$ was performed by using a ball sensor, ball-type movable sensor, non-contacting capacitive sensor and upper guard sensor which were developed in this project.
