Do you ever see slices of ferrite core used in capacitors, how do you think that would work ?
I bet you won't charge that one up.Putting metal laden material between charged poles is not a good idea.
They usually stick to using a thin non metallic insulator with good insulation properties, otherwise known as a true dielectric.
Ferrite cores are not a dielectric by David Gilbert ;
Note the term "*ceramic*". In what world do you live where ceramics don't have dielectric properties? Ever heard of ceramic capacitors?
