An open-ended coaxial cable is used to measure the dielectric properties of lossy liquid. The method which is based on the measurement of the reflection coefficient of the open-ended cable makes it easy to operate and postprocess. To meet the accuracy requirements, the dimensions of the coaxial cable need to be taken into consideration; therefore, it is necessary to select an appropriate coaxial cable for the measurement. This paper investigates the influence of cable dimensions on dielectric measurement accuracy. With careful choice of the coaxial cable, the relative error of calculated results can be less than 0.1%.

This paper describes a method for determining the dielectric constant of a biological tissue. A suitable way to make a dielectric measurement that is nondestructive and noninvasive for the biological substance and broadband at the frequency range of the network analyzer is to use a reflection method on an open ended coaxial line. A coaxial probe in the frequency range of the network analyzer from 17 MHz to 2 GHz is under investigation and also a calibration technique and the behavior of discrete elements in an equivalent circuit of an open ended coaxial line. Information about the magnitude and phase of the reflection coefficient on the interface between a biological tissue sample and a measurement probe is modeled with the aid of an electromagnetic field simulator. The numerical modeling is compared with real measurements, and a comparison is presented.

Barium titanate (BaTiO3) nanoparticles with various particle sizes from 20 to 430 nm were prepared using a 2-step thermal decomposition method. Powder dielectric measurement clarified that dielectric constant of BaTiO3 particles with 140 nm exhibited a maximum around 5,000. To explain this high dielectric constant, THz-region dielectric properties of BaTiO3 nanoparticles, especially Slater transverse optic (TO) mode frequency, were estimated using the far infrared (FIR) reflection method. As the result, it was found that the Slater TO mode of BaTiO3 particles with 140 nm exhibited a minimum. Therefore, the high dielectric constant around 5,000 at 140 nm can be originated from the softening of the Slater TO mode.
