Dielectric Properties of Biological Substances — Tabulated
M.A. Stuchly, S.S. Stuchly · 1980
The paper tabulates dielectric constant and loss factor for biological materials from 10 KHz to 10 GHz and summarizes tissue phantom compositions.
Plain English Summary
The authors compiled dielectric property data from multiple sources into a single reference table. The table covers dielectric constant and loss factor for biological materials across frequencies from 10 KHz to 10 GHz. The authors note that many values were interpolated from graphs and are not very accurate.
Why This Matters
The permittivity values are expressed as a complex number with the dielectric constant as the real part and the loss factor as the imaginary part. The loss factor combines relaxation and ionic losses and is linked to conductivity and resistivity through a defined equation.
