Dielectric dispersion of water in the GHz frequency range (1)

Full-Atomistic Molecular Dynamics (FAMD) was used to evaluate dielectric dispersion of water. From equilibrium calculations using VSOP, the autocorrelation function of polarization was obtained, and relaxation time was calculated by fitting with a Debye-type relaxation function. The obtained static dielectric constant showed good agreement with literature values, allowing quantitative evaluation of dielectric properties in the GHz range.

Evaluation of dielectric dispersion of water using VSOP

The dielectric relaxation function of water obtained using VSOP is shown. The relaxation time τ is calculated by fitting the dielectric relaxation function, derived from the autocorrelation function of polarization, with a Debye-type function.

Calculation of complex dielectric constant from dielectric relaxation function

Using relaxation time τ, static dielectric constant ε(0), and high-frequency dielectric constant ε(∞), the dielectric dispersion (complex permittivity) of water in the GHz range is evaluated.
