More specifically, we have studied electrical properties nanocomposites, particular trapping transport electrons material, as well emission electrons. To examine storage spreading injected charge under irradiation, used time‐resolved current analysis method by measuring induced currents (displacement leakage currents).

Dielectric capacitors have garnered significant attention in recent decades for their wide range of uses contemporary electronic and electrical power systems. The integration a high breakdown field polymer matrix with various types fillers dielectric nanocomposites has attracted from both academic commercial sectors. energy storage performance is influenced by essential factors, such as the choice matrix, filler type, morphologies, interfacial engineering, composite structure. However, application limited large amount content, low densities, low-temperature tolerance. Very recently, utilization two-dimensional (2D) materials become prevalent across several disciplines due to exceptional thermal, electrical, mechanical characteristics. Compared zero-dimensional (0D) one-dimensional (1D) fillers, are more effective enhancing properties polymer-based composites. present review provides comprehensive overview 2D filler-based composites, encompassing ceramics, metal oxides, carbon compounds, MXenes, clays, boron nitride, others. In general sense, incorporation into nanocomposite dielectrics can result enhancement capability, even at concentrations. current challenges future perspectives also discussed.
