contents Non-destructive measurement of the dielectric constant of solid samples A. Guadarrama-Santana A. García-Valenzuela Física, Astronomía y Matemáticas pointer electrode dielectric constant Capacitance measurements materials characterization We discuss and analyze a practical methodology for the determination of the dielectric constant of a macroscopic solid sample in a nondestructive way. The technique consists in measuring the capacitance between a pointer electrode and the dielectric surface as a function of the separation distance in a scale comparable to the radius of curvature of the tip's apex. The changes in capacitance that must be measured will commonly be in the atto-farad scale and require specialized instrumentation which we also describe here. The technique requires two calibration standards and the sample needs to have a portion of its surface flat and some minimum dimensions, but otherwise it can have an arbitrary shape. We used a simple model based on the method of images to explain the methodology and present experimental results with the proposed methodology. 2009 artículo científico 0035-001X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=57013233012 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=570 Revista Mexicana de Física application/pdf Sociedad Mexicana de Física A.C.
