The electric field due to a point dipole (upper left), a physical dipole of electric charges (upper right), a thin polarized sheet (lower left) or a plate capacitor (lower right). All generate the same field profile when the arrangement is infinitesimally small.
The electric displacement field "D" is defined as +, where is the vacuum permittivity (also called permittivity of free space), and P is the (macroscopic) density of the permanent and induced electric dipole moments in the material, called the polarization density.
Electric field lines of two opposing charges separated by a finite distance. Magnetic field lines of a ring current of finite diameter. Field lines of a point dipole of any type, electric, magnetic, acoustic, etc. A physical dipole consists of two equal and opposite point charges: in the literal sense, two poles. Its field at large distances (i ...
A field effect is the polarization of a molecule through space. The effect is a result of an electric field produced by charge localization in a molecule. [1] This field, which is substituent and conformation dependent, can influence structure and reactivity by manipulating the location of electron density in bonds and/or the overall molecule. [2]
Within the Standard Model, such a dipole is predicted to be non-zero but very small, at most 10 −38 e⋅cm, [2] where e stands for the elementary charge. The discovery of a substantially larger electron electric dipole moment would imply a violation of both parity invariance and time reversal invariance. [3] [4]
The polarizability of an atom or molecule is defined as the ratio of its induced dipole moment to the local electric field; in a crystalline solid, one considers the dipole moment per unit cell. [1] Note that the local electric field seen by a molecule is generally different from the macroscopic electric field that would be measured externally.
The Laporte rule (law) applies to electric dipole transitions, so the operator has u symmetry (meaning ungerade, odd). [3] p orbitals also have u symmetry, so the symmetry of the transition moment function is given by the product (formally, the product is taken in the group) u×u×u, which has u symmetry. The transitions are therefore forbidden.
The E fields and B fields due to electric charges (black/white) and magnetic poles (red/blue). [15] [16] Top: E field due to an electric dipole moment d. Bottom left: B field due to a mathematical magnetic dipole m formed by two magnetic monopoles. Bottom right: B field due to a pure magnetic dipole moment m found in ordinary matter (not from ...
