Working Principle

A tantalum capacitor has two electrodes, an anode and a cathode. Between the two electrodes a thin layer of tantalum oxide is formed, which acts as an insulating layer and the capacitance of the capacitor is formed by the elements that make up this layer. This layer is then polarized to raise the voltage of the anode and the cathode. When voltage is applied to the capacitor, electrons are attracted to the cathode and move towards the anode. As the electrons move towards the anode, an electric field is created and the electric field creates an electric charge on the anode and the cathode. The magnitude of the electric charge determines the capacitance of the capacitor.
