Answer:
Dielectrics in capacitors serve three purposes: to keep the conducting plates from coming in contact, allowing for smaller plate separations and therefore higher capacitances; to increase the effective capacitance by reducing the electric field strength, which means you get the same charge at a lower voltage.

Explanation:
Dielectric, insulating material or a very poor conducter of electric current. when dielectrics are placed in an electric field, practically no current flows in them because unlike metals, they have no loosely bound, or free, electrons that may drift through the material
