A Low Temperature Dielectric Cell and the Permittivity of Hexagonal Ice to 2 K

Abstract: The limiting high frequency permittivity ε∞ of hexagonal ice, measured using a coaxial three terminal dielectric cell designed to minimize errors arising from differential thermal contraction, varies from 3.093 ± 0.003 at 2 K to 3.15 ± 0.02 at 200 K. The result is discussed in relation to the translational lattice vibrations and a comparison is made with other ices.

“…(10) varies from to when the electrostatic potential of a particle varies from V to V for Pa tensile strength of the grain (assumed after Rickman 1998) and dielectric constant (Gough 1972). Thus the heterogeneous primary grains with radii lower than must undergo destruction into smaller secondary particles.…”

“…The value of the dielectric permittivity at frequencies high compared with all the dispersions hitherto considered has been deduced for polycrystalline ice by Gough (1972 ) from measurements at frequen cies up to 60 kHz with an isolated measurement at I MHz. With this frequency range he could make accurate measurements of Ero only at temperatures lower than about -400 C; he finds that the asymptotic value is given by Ero = 3.093 ± 0.003 + (0.72 ± 0.60) X 1O-4 T + (0.…”

“…The geometric capacitance of the stainless steel capacitor was determined by using the known dielectric permittivity, Ј, of ice Ih of 3.1Ϯ0.05 at 1-10 kHz measurement frequency and ambient pressure and low temperatures, as reported by Johari and co-workers. 25 ͑Johari and Whalley 26 had also found that for ice Ih, Ј at temperatures below 170 K at 10 kHz, was within 0.1% of the limiting high-frequency value of its dielectric permittivity ϱ and Gough 27 have shown that ϱ decreases from 3.16 at 253 K to 3.093 at 2 K.͒ Of further relevance to our study are the earlier findings 28 that an increase in pressure from ambient to 0.2 GPa reduces the contribution from orientation polarization as the relaxation peak shifts to lower frequencies, increases its optical refractive index, and decrease the contribution from the infrared polarizability. These changes had been determined by measuring the frequency of translational lattice vibrations of ice Ih as a function of both temperature and pressure by Johari et al 28 The net effect on Ј, which already approaches the value of ϱ , is thus expected to be less than 1%.…”
