Consider a parallel plate capacitor with plates in the shape of a square in the $XY$-plane. The gap between the plates is filled with a dielectric material. The dielectric constant $k$ varies along the $X$-axis as $k(x) = \left[1 + \left(\frac{x}{L}\right)^\alpha\right]$,where $\alpha$ is a constant. Let $C_d$ and $C_a$ be the capacitance in the presence of the dielectric and air,respectively. If the ratio $\frac{C_d}{C_a} = \frac{7}{6}$,then the value of $\alpha$ must be
