Strong relaxation polarization in a double-layer capacitor

Abstract

In dielectrics, strong relaxation polarizations develop that contribute much to the polarization of the substance. Such great contributions should be expected in heterogeneous dielectrics. Relaxation polarization is studied in the simplest of heterogeneous dielectrics: a double-layer capacitor. The areas of concentration of the development of strong relaxation polarizations, the locations of which depend on the ratios of permittivities and the through electrical conductivities of the layers, are determined. The transition to strong relaxation polarization in this case also occurs in accordance with criteria developed earlier.
