EDIT: Im going to presume that the funny greek symbol here (Epsilon sub X, and Epsilon sub Y), means dielectric constant or permitivity? I also assume some materials can show polarized field propagation? thus the different fields ?
Yep, it's relative dielectric constant. Materials which are anisotropic (as opposed to isotropic) can have a material property such as dielectric constant which depends on the direction in which the field is applied. I'm not aware of common dielectrics which exhibit dielectric anisotropy though, generally you need to have a crystal for anisotropy.
Yeah that X and Y was the give away, i think tri-nitro-benzene has this feature you speak of, if im remembering right, or maybe the yittria crytals?

Ah, turns out that good ol' FR4 is anisotropic due to the structure of the woven glass inside it: Link2

I'm not sure you want to be using tri-nitro-benzene as a dielectric anyways as it is apparently explosive wink

You worry to much. It'll be fine. |< puffs on cigar, while loading acetylene with liquid O2 present >| ....
