However, at the edges of the two parallel plates, instead of being parallel and uniform, the electric field lines are slightly bent upwards due to the geometry
View more$begingroup$ The fields outside are not zero, but can be approximated as small for two reasons: (1) mechanical forces hold the two "charge sheets" (i.e., capacitor plates here) apart and maintain separation, and (2) there is an external source of work done on the capacitor by some power supply (e.g., a battery or AC motor). Remove (1) and the two "sheets" will begin to oscillate
