DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The large volume and rigid case of the capacitor now shapes the housing in implanted heart monitoring devices. This research explores methods to achieve the same therapy with a much smaller device. Specifically, it explores the question: Can defibrillators be made smaller, and, if so, how small? The major thrusts of the Phase I research will be to provide limited experimental proof of some fundamental ideas. These will be used to engineer film and capacitor design in the Phase II to provide flexible capacitors with energy densities of over 10 J/cc. Demonstration of the capabilities of composite flexible films with high dielectric constants and improved dielectric strength through simple laboratory feasibility tests are planned.

描述（由申请人提供）： 电容器的大体积和刚性外壳现在塑造了植入式心脏监测设备的外壳。这项研究探索了用更小的设备实现相同治疗的方法。具体来说，它探讨了这样一个问题：除颤器是否可以做得更小，如果可以，有多小？ 第一阶段研究的主要目标是为一些基本想法提供有限的实验证明。这些将用于第二阶段的薄膜和电容器设计，以提供能量密度超过 10 J/cc 的柔性电容器。计划通过简单的实验室可行性测试来展示具有高介电常数和提高介电强度的复合柔性薄膜的能力。
