The dielectric relaxation at percolation was analyzed in the time domain since the theoretical relaxation model described above is formulated for the dipole correlation function T(f). For this purpose the complex dielectric permittivity data were expressed in terms of the DCF using (14) and (25). Figure 28 shows typical examples of the DCF, obtained from the frequency dependence of the complex permittivity at the percolation temperature, corresponding to several porous glasses studied recently [153-156].
