What is the value of the dielectric constant for metals?

Solution

Dielectric constant for metals:

  • The dielectric constant is the ratio of the substance's permeability to the permeability of free space.
  • Metals have had the greatest dielectric constant and they're the most polarizable substances on earth.
  • Metal permittivity is rather substantial, similar to open space permittivity.
  • For metals, the dielectric constant seems to have an infinite value.
