3. Permittivity and dielectric losses in solid insulators

3.1 Definitions and meaning of permittivity and dielectric losses

SCROLL TO TOP

3.1.1 Definitions

In the (purely theoretical) case of a perfect dielectric, the relative permittivity ε r is defined as the ratio between the capacitance C x of a system of electrodes immersed in the dielectric and the capacitance C v of the same electrode configuration in a vacuum :
