Dielectric Measurement

Dielectric measurement involves testing materials to understand how they respond to an electric field. It reveals properties like how well the material insulates or stores electrical energy, which is important for applications like capacitors and electronic components. The process typically involves applying a small, alternating voltage to the material and measuring its response, including its ability to store charge (capacitance) and how much it dissipates energy as heat (loss). These measurements help assess material quality, stability, and suitability for specific electrical or electronic uses.
