TL;DR: In this paper, the usual interpretation as the sum of many Debye-like loss peaks is criticised and a new model is proposed in which charge carriers hop between localised sites in a polarisable medium.
Abstract: The loss in most dielectric materials shows a component that is ‘flat’ in frequency over several decades and does not depend strongly on temperature. The usual interpretation as the sum of many Debye-like loss peaks is criticised and a new model is proposed in which charge carriers hop between localised sites in a polarisable medium.
