Dielectric polarizabilities of ions in oxides and fluorides

A set of 61 ion polarizabilities has been derived from the dielectric constants of 129 oxides and 25 fluorides using a least squares refinement technique in conjunction with the Clausius–Mosotti equation. These polarizabilities can be used to estimate mean dielectric constants of ‘‘well-behaved’’ compounds. They should be particularly useful in calculation of mean dielectric constants of compounds whose dielectric constants have not been determined. They can also be used as a framework for distinguishing unusual dielectric behavior from normal dielectric behavior where deviations can frequently be attributed to piezo- or ferroelectricity, conductivity (ionic or electronic), ‘‘rattling’’ or ‘‘compressed’’ cations with correspondingly high or low polarizabilities, or the presence of dipolar impurities. Deviations observed from calculated dielectric constants can be used to search for unusual physical behavior.
