Wave Impedance - Wave Impedance in An Unbounded Dielectric

Wave Impedance in An Unbounded Dielectric

In a perfect dielectric, H/m and F/m. So, the value of wave impedance in a perfect dielectric is

.

In a perfect dielectric, the wave impedance can be found by dividing Z0 by the square root of the dielectric constant. In anything else, the formula becomes larger and a complex number is the result.

Famous quotes containing the word wave:

    Children are as destined biologically to break away as we are, emotionally, to hold on and protect. But thinking independently comes of acting independently. It begins with a two-year-old doggedly pulling on flannel pajamas during a July heat wave and with parents accepting that the impulse is a good one. When we let go of these small tasks without anger or sorrow but with pleasure and pride we give each act of independence our blessing.
    Cathy Rindner Tempelsman (20th century)
