Debye relaxation
Debye relaxation is the dielectric relaxation response of an ideal,
noninteracting population of dipoles to an alternating external electric field. It is usually expressed in the complex permittivity
of a medium as a
function of the field's frequency ω:
where 
is
the permittivity at the high frequency limit, 
where 
is the static, low frequency
permittivity, and τ is the characteristic relaxation time
of the medium.
This relaxation model was named after the chemist Peter Debye.
