Dielectric response as a function of frequency for high-permittivity dielectric and ferroelectric materials is discussed emphasizing the dynamic behaviour in the microwave and infrared range. After introducing the usual modelling of the polar phonon response and anharmonic hopping in locally dynamically disordered solids, including discussion of displacive and order-disorder ferroelectric phase transitions, we summarised the experimental data for selected ferroelectric, incipient ferroelectric and antiferroelectric perovskite ceramics (STO, BTO, BST, PZO), discussing the dielectric grain size effect due to a low-permittivity (dead) grain-boundary layer. Other important structural types of ferroelectrics (Aurivillius compounds SBT, pyrochlores CNO, PMN) are mentioned, as well. Attention is then paid to relaxor ferroelectrics (PLZT, PMN, PMT, PST, NBT of perovskite structure and SBN and a novel BLNTN solid solution system and SLTN of tungsten-bronze structure) and their extremely broad and complex dielectric dispersion. Then some new results on magnetoelectric multiferroics (BiFeO3, BiFe_(1/2)Cr_(1/2)O3, EuTiO3) are summarised and finally our results on microwave ceramics (used for microwave applications) are noted, discussing mainly the problem of extrapolating the microwave dielectric properties from the infrared and THz range. A glossary is added, briefly explaining the meaning of several concepts which might not be quite familiar for the reader.
