The dielectric properties of a material are determined by the polarizability of its molecules. There are three primary contributions to the electric polarization of a dielectrics electronic, ionic and dipole reorientation - related (Uchino, 2000). The intensity with which each mechanism occurs depends on the frequency of applied electric field. The electronic polarization causes a displacement of the electrons with respect to the atomic nuclei and can follow alternating field with the frequencies up to - lOi Hz. The ionic polarization relies on a displacement of the atomic nuclei relative to one another and responds up to lO - lO Hz. Both mentioned polarization mechanisms are related to the non-polar molecules. The third mechanism associated with the dipole reorientation is valid only in the case of polar molecules. It can follow with the frequency of alternating electric field up to 10 - lO Hz. The dielectric permittivity of a material represents the ratio of the capacitance of a plane condenser filled with the dielectric to that of the same condenser under vacuum and is to calculate from the expression ... 

In electrical conductors such as metals, the attraction between the outer electrons and the nucleus of the atom is weak the outer electrons can move readily and, since an electric current is essentially a flow of electrons, metals are good conductors of electricity. In electrical insulators (or dielectrics), electrons are strongly bonded to the nucleus and are not free to move. The electrical properties of Group IV carbides are shown in Table... 

Electronic polarization a can be observed in all dielectrics irrespective of whether other types of polarization are displayed in the dielectric. Electronic polarization is the displacement of electrons with respects to the atomic nuclens, to be more precise—the displacement of the orbits imder the action of an external electric field. When the system is subjected to an external field of intensity E, the nucleus and the electron experience Lorentz forces in opposite directions. When atoms form molecules, electronic polarization is still possible, but there may be additional polarization due to a relative displacement of the atomic components of the molecule in the presence of an electric field. When a field is applied to the molecule, the atoms in the molecule are displaced in opposite directions imtil ionic binding force stops the process and ionic polarization a arises, thus increasing the dipole moment. It is found that electronic and ionic polarizations are functions of molecular stracture and are largely independent of temperature.

Interaction between undercoordinated atoms in the skin and the fraction of such undercoordinated atoms determine the unusual behavior of nanostructures. The BOLS correlation clarifies the common origin for the unusual performance of defects, surfaces, grain boundaries, and nanostructures of various shapes in chemistry, dielectrics, electronics, magnetism, mechanics, thermodynamics, phononics, and photonics. 

This is no longer the case when (iii) motion along the reaction patir occurs on a time scale comparable to other relaxation times of the solute or the solvent, i.e. the system is partially non-relaxed. In this situation dynamic effects have to be taken into account explicitly, such as solvent-assisted intramolecular vibrational energy redistribution (IVR) in the solute, solvent-induced electronic surface hopping, dephasing, solute-solvent energy transfer, dynamic caging, rotational relaxation, or solvent dielectric and momentum relaxation. 

As with SCRF-PCM only macroscopic electrostatic contribntions to the Gibbs free energy of solvation are taken into account, short-range effects which are limited predominantly to the first solvation shell have to be considered by adding additional tenns. These correct for the neglect of effects caused by solnte-solvent electron correlation inclnding dispersion forces, hydrophobic interactions, dielectric saturation in the case of...

The simplest example is that of tire shallow P donor in Si. Four of its five valence electrons participate in tire covalent bonding to its four Si nearest neighbours at tire substitutional site. The energy of tire fiftli electron which, at 0 K, is in an energy level just below tire minimum of tire CB, is approximated by rrt /2wCplus tire screened Coulomb attraction to tire ion, e /sr, where is tire dielectric constant or the frequency-dependent dielectric function. The Sclirodinger equation for tliis electron reduces to tliat of tlie hydrogen atom, but m replaces tlie electronic mass and screens the Coulomb attraction. 

Electron transfer reaction rates can depend strongly on tire polarity or dielectric properties of tire solvent. This is because (a) a polar solvent serves to stabilize botli tire initial and final states, tluis altering tire driving force of tire ET reaction, and (b) in a reaction coordinate system where the distance between reactants and products (DA and... 

Because of the presence of the lone pairs of electrons, the molecule has a dipole moment (and the liquid a high permittivity or dielectric constant).
