The real and imaginary parts of permittivity are shown, and various processes are depicted: ionic and dipolar relaxation, and atomic and electronic resonances at higher energies. [ 1 ] Dielectric spectroscopy (which falls in a subcategory of the impedance spectroscopy ) measures the dielectric properties of a medium as a function of frequency .
In electromagnetism, the absolute permittivity, often simply called permittivity and denoted by the Greek letter ε , is a measure of the electric polarizability of a dielectric material. A material with high permittivity polarizes more in response to an applied electric field than a material with low permittivity, thereby storing more energy ...
The relative permittivity of a medium is related to its electric susceptibility, χ e, as ε r (ω) = 1 + χ e. In anisotropic media (such as non cubic crystals) the relative permittivity is a second rank tensor. The relative permittivity of a material for a frequency of zero is known as its static relative permittivity.
Vacuum permittivity, commonly denoted ε 0 (pronounced "epsilon nought" or "epsilon zero"), is the value of the absolute dielectric permittivity of classical vacuum. It may also be referred to as the permittivity of free space , the electric constant , or the distributed capacitance of the vacuum.

All quantities are in Gaussian units except energy and temperature which are in electronvolts.For the sake of simplicity, a single ionic species is assumed. The ion mass is expressed in units of the proton mass, = / and the ion charge in units of the elementary charge, = / (in the case of a fully ionized atom, equals to the respective atomic number).
In electricity (electromagnetism), the electric susceptibility (; Latin: susceptibilis "receptive") is a dimensionless proportionality constant that indicates the degree of polarization of a dielectric material in response to an applied electric field.
Drude applied the kinetic theory of a dilute gas, despite the high densities, therefore ignoring electron–electron and electron–ion interactions aside from collisions. [Ashcroft & Mermin 13] The Drude model considers the metal to be formed of a collection of positively charged ions from which a number of "free electrons" were detached.
