Effects of chemical defects on anisotropic dielectric response of polyethylene

Dielectric polymers such as polyethylene (PE) have a wide range of energy and electronic applications. While recent studies have shown significant effects of chemical defects on the electronic structure of PE, those on the dielectric properties remain elusive. Here, first-principles quantum-mechanic...
