Dielectric Response of Silica Aerogels [PDF]
Defect and Diffusion Forum, 1987 The dielectric response of porous silica aerogel prepared by hypercritical drying of gels from hydrolysis of TMOS — Methanol solution have been measured between 1.6 K to 300 K and frequencies between 50 and 10 5 Hz. The ɛ' value of the porous gels is found practically constant between room temperature and 100K but smaller than of fused silica. A sharp
