Alright, so it's the insulator that is the problem. If the two plates would be connected through a resistor, it would radiate like an antenna, right?

I was looking up capacitors and the E-field that is produced by a capacitor and I couldn't find much literature about how the E-field changes when AC is flowing through a capacitor. Is this similar to the propagation of an antenna? Do capacitors radiate? Could a capacitor be considered a dipole...

Just wanted to quickly say hello, I'm a human-computer interaction researcher interested in electronics and stuff. Looking forward to discussions!
