First sentence: In the experimental study of complex fluids like liquid crystals, glass forming liquids, polymers, etc., one observes that the time evolution of the dielectric relaxation processes can no longer be described in the form of the exponential function as in the Debye model, but rather by the Kohlrausch-Williams-Watt law corresponding to a stretched exponential function [1-6].
