Fringing Field Effect

Description:

The fringing field effect is a phenomenon that occurs in the presence of an electric field, where the field is distributed around the edges of conductive objects or structures. This effect is due to the non-uniform distribution of the electric field lines near the edges, causing deviations from the expected behavior.

Sample Sentences:

Noun:

1. The fringing field effect in the capacitor caused a slight distortion in the overall voltage.
2. The engineer noticed a significant reduction in the fringing field effect when the edges of the conductor were carefully rounded.

Verb:

1. By adjusting the parameters, the researcher successfully minimized the fringing field effect.
2. To avoid any undesirable consequences, it is necessary to take the fringing field effect into account during the circuit design process.

Adjective:

1. The fringing field effect behavior of the new material was thoroughly examined in the laboratory experiments.
2. With proper insulation, the fringing field effect can be greatly reduced in electrical components.

Adverb:

1. The electric charges were distributed fringingly, leading to an increased fringing field effect.
2. By carefully adjusting the parameters, the team was able to minimize the fringing field effect fringingly.
