Abstract

This paper reviews measurement techniques and sources of data for the dielectric constant and loss factor of solid materials. Accurate values of such properties are basic to intelligent design of materials processing schemes utilizing electromagnetic energy. Emphasis is on techniques and data for these properties in the “microwave” range of frequencies of roughly 108 to 1011 Hz and at elevated temperatures.
