Je. Atwater, Complex permittivities of cyclomaltooligosaccharides (cyclodextrins) over microwave frequencies to 26 GHz, CARBOHY RES, 327(3), 2000, pp. 219-221
Complex permittivities (epsilon*) for microwave radiation between 0.5 and 2
6 GHz have been determined for alpha-, beta-, and gamma-cyclodextrins in th
e solid state at room temperature. For the real component of epsilon*, maxi
ma occur near 0.6 GHz, and the relation beta > alpha > gamma is evident acr
oss the full-frequency spectrum. Dielectric loss is significant only betwee
n 5 and 12 GHz for beta- and gamma-cyclodextrins with maxima near 7.5 GHz.
