Novel Concept of Non-Debye Dipole Relaxation Processes for the Interpretation of Physical Origin of Dielectric Loss in the Glass Formers, Drugs, Polymers and Plastic Crystals
The physical origin of dielectric loss is shown to be sum of n number of subunits relaxation of a molecule, where n=1,2,3.. For each subunit relaxation, the idea of intermolecular dipole-dipole interactions triggered non-Debye dipole, ($\bf G$)$_{n}$=((1-g$_d$)$\bf G$$_{0}$)$_{n}$, and the ensuing dual dipole ($\bf G$$_{\pm}$)$_n$=($\bf G$$_0$$\pm$$\bf G$)$_n$, relaxation processes is proposed, where $\bf G$$_{-}$=g$_{d}$$\bf G$$_{0}$, $\bf G$$_{+}$=(2-g$_{d}$)$\bf G$$_{0}$, and $\bf G$$_{0}$ is a Debye dipole. Each subunit motion is statistically highly independent process and discriminated by Debye and non-Debye relaxation (NDR) time, where g$_d$ is an exponent 0<g$_d$<1 and signifies interaction strength with a redistribution and conservation of Debye dielectric loss energy. The proposed concept provides a new insight for the NDR and discloses the physical origin of $α$, $β$, $γ$, $δ$ relaxations and excess wing of glass formers, plastic crystals, drugs, etc., with an excellent agreement with experimental results.
