Dielectric Theories and Properties of Solids.

      Аннотация: The book is to outline in qualitative terms, the way in which the dielectric constant varies with frequency and temperature, and to indicate the type of information regarding the structure of materials which can be obtained from the study of the dielectric constant. The various types of polarizations, which have been demonstrated to exist, are listed, together with an outline of their characteristics. The development of the dielectric theory in recent years has been along such specialized lines that there is a need for some correlation between the newer and the older theories of dielectric behavior to keep clear what is common to both, though sometimes expressed in different terms. The theoretical concept of the dielectric constant, which is an important dielectric property of matter, has been discussed.
