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.
Another common term encountered for both absolute and relative permittivity is the dielectric constant which has been deprecated in physics and engineering [2] as well as in chemistry. [ 3 ] By definition, a perfect vacuum has a relative permittivity of exactly 1 whereas at standard temperature and pressure , air has a relative permittivity of ...
The real (blue solid line) and imaginary (orange dashed line) components of relative permittivity are plotted for model with parameters = 3.2 eV, = 4.5 eV, = 100 eV, = 1 eV, and = 3.5. The Tauc–Lorentz model is a mathematical formula for the frequency dependence of the complex-valued relative permittivity , sometimes referred to as the ...
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.
The Lorentz–Lorenz equation is similar to the Clausius–Mossotti relation, except that it relates the refractive index (rather than the dielectric constant) of a substance to its polarizability. The Lorentz–Lorenz equation is named after the Danish mathematician and scientist Ludvig Lorenz , who published it in 1869, and the Dutch ...
The relation holds for systems with a single optical branch, such as cubic systems with two different atoms per unit cell. For systems with many phonon branches, the relation does not necessarily hold, as the permittivity for any pair of longitudinal and transverse modes will be altered by the other modes in the system.
Brendel-Bormann oscillator model. The real (blue dashed line) and imaginary (orange solid line) components of relative permittivity are plotted for a single oscillator model with parameters = 500 cm, = 0.25 cm, = 0.05 cm, and = 0.25 cm.
where R is the molar refractivity, is the Avogadro constant, is the electronic polarizability, p is the density of molecules, M is the molar mass, and = / is the material's relative permittivity or dielectric constant (or in optics, the square of the refractive index).
