Relative Permittivity (εr) or Dielectric Constant
Definition, Formula
Dielectric characteristics of a material is determined by its dielectric constant. It is a measure of polarisation in dielectrics.
RELATIVE PERMITTIVITY (εr) or DIELECTRIC CONSTANT
Dielectric characteristics of a material is determined by its dielectric constant. It is a measure of polarisation in dielectrics.
Definition
It is the ratio of absolute permittivity of the medium (ε) and permittivity of free space (ε0).
Dielectric constant εr = Absolute Permittivity (ε) / Permittivity of free space (ε0)
εr = ε / ε0
Since dielectric constant is the ratio of same quantity, it is a dimensionless quantity and it has no unit.
The value of ε r= 1 for air or vacuum. Dielectric constant is also called as relative permittivity.
