Electrical resistivity is a property of materials and is different from electrical resistance which is a property of a component. Resistivity is also known as Specific Electrical Resistance or Volume Resistivity. Resistivity can also be defined as the inverse of the conductivity of a material - Ï = 1 / Ï.It is a measure of how a material opposes the flow of electric current. The SI unit of resistivity is ohm meter (Ï.m).
In electromagnetism, permittivity or absolute permittivity is the measure of resistance that is encountered when forming an electric field in a medium. In other words, permittivity is a measure of how an electric field affects, and is affected by, a dielectric medium. The permittivity of a medium describes how much electric field (more correctly, flux) is 'generated' per unit charge in that medium. More electric flux exists in a medium with a low permittivity (per unit charge) because of polarization effects. Permittivity is directly related to electric susceptibility, which is a measure of how easily a dielectric polarizes in response to an electric field.
