For the first time, a new re‐engineered polarized capacitor architecture for high energy density storage is demonstrated. Thin charge blocking layers are introduced at the electrode/dielectric interfaces. The insertion of these blocking layers leads to a likely reduction of charge injection into the dielectric material and a more than 200 V μm −1 increase in the electric field breakdown of the dielectric.
