The capacitators have been designed by Murata Manufacturing Co and the latest super-small capacitor is a quarter of the size of the previous smallest ceramic capacitor, also developed by Murata, in 2004

Capacitors, which store electric energy, are used in the dozens, even in the hundreds, in just about every type of gadget - smartphones, laptops, hybrid cars, medical equipment and digital cameras. (In pic: A bicycle-riding robot designed by Murata that could be powered by their capacitator)
