Abstract
Organic film polymers have been the dielectric of choice for high voltage, microsecond-discharge, high energy density capacitors. Electron traps normally found in these films limits their maximun voltage breakdown strength, engergy density, and dissipation. The objective of this proposal is to demonstrate the feasibility of producing higher performance polymer-like dielectric materials without catalysts, impurities, solvents, or antioxidants using ionized cluster beams in conjunction with conventional vacuum deposition techniques.
