The principle of potential increase as the value of C is decreased was 
published by Charles Yost, Electric Space Craft Journal (RIP) as found 
in the Encyclopedia Britannica as an O/U device.  I built one of the 
variable capacitance devices, interleaved clover leaf capacitive plates 
just like the old air variable tuning capacitors in your Ham rigs.  The 
Hyde Generator works on the principle of voltage multiplication when C 
value is decreased.  Most devices use a variable inductor to accomplish 
the same phenomenon.
