Relationships between the Dielectric Constant, Refractive Index and Hysteresis in Crystal Structures.
Abstract
This report describes the relationships of the dielectric constant and refractive index in crystal structures. It is an attempt, using existing literature, to investigate through conventional means, possible measurement and use of the speed of light in crystal structures. The attempt is made to establish the possibility of measuring crystal characteristics by applying an electric field and measuring the effect on light transmission. This appears possible because of the hysteresis effects that exist in crystal type structures. (Author)
