On the theory of dielectric relaxation    [PDF]

John Y. Fu

Dielectric relaxation has been investigated within the framework of a modified mean field theory, in which two dynamic processes are believed to be involved in dielectric relaxation; the first corresponds to relaxation of crystalline lattice and the second represents slow relaxation of a partially ordered phase of high-temperature structure precursors generated by thermal fluctuations in solid dielectrics. It later becomes clear that it is the interaction between these two processes that results in a universal dielectric relaxation law.
