description |
The Bruggeman formalism provides an estimate �Br
hcm of the relative permittivity of
a homogenized composite material (HCM), arising from two component materials with relative
permittivities �a and �b. It can be inverted to provide an estimate of �a, from a knowledge of
�Br
hcm and �b. Numerical studies show that the inverse Bruggeman estimate �a can be physically
implausible when (i) Re �
�Br
hcm�
/Re {�b} > 0 and the degree of HCM dissipation is moder�ate or greater; or (ii) Re �
�Br
hcm�
/ Re {�b} < 0 regardless of the degree of HCM dissipation.
Furthermore, even when the inverse Bruggeman estimate is not obviously implausible, huge
discrepancies can exist between this estimate and the corresponding estimate provided by the
inverse Maxwell Garnett formalism. |
