An algorithm is proposed that makes it possible to calculate the coefficients of power polynomials approximating the illuminated and shadow surfaces of bifocal lens antennas. The algorithm is based on providing equality of electrical lengths of rays passing from the focus points through lens body and its edge and on the assumption that the phase front is flat and is inclined at a determined angle relative to the main optical axis of the lens on the aperture of the lens antenna. For each of the rays an expression was written that determines its electrical length. The electrical length of the rays depends on the points coordinates of the illuminated and shadow surface of the lens, in which they are refracted. The analytical solution of the obtained equation is difficult. Therefore, it is proposed to determine the exact coordinate values by numerical methods. The proposed algorithm determines in series the three points lying on the illuminated and shadow surfaces. The coordinates of the points are used to form systems of equations whose solutions are the coefficients of power polynomials approximating the illuminated and shadow surfaces of the lens antenna. The algorithm does not impose restrictions on the relative dielectric constant of the material from which the lens antenna is made.

ABSTRACTMoisture absorption and its effect on electrical properties were measured for several polyimides. A Quartz Crystal Microbalance (QCM) was used to investigate the moisture absorption in BPDA/PPD, PMDA/ODA, and BTDA//ODA/MPD polyimides. The steady-state moisture uptake in polyimides as a function of relative humidity (RH) was determined by exposing film samples to successively higher RH values ranging from 10 to 85% at 25°C. The isothermal moisture absorption as a function of percent RH was found to be nearly linear for all of the polyimides studied. The effect of moisture on the electrical properties of a BPDA/PPD polyimide was also investigated. The relative dielectric constant at 25 °C was found to be a linear function of the moisture absorbed.

The Bi0.5(Na1-xKx)0.5-yBaTiO3(BNK-BT) lead-free ceramics have been prepared by the solild reactive sintering method. XRD patterns show the BNK-BT ceramics had a perovskite structure. Piezoelectric and dielectric properties of the ceramics also have been studied. The results show that the samples had the best piezoelectric and dielectric properties when x=0.20, y=0.10. And the maximum of d33is 149 pC/N, while the relative dielectric constant is 1087.

AbstractMultilayer interconnection structures incorporating a novel polymeric dielectric derived from a bis-benzocyclobutene(bis-BCB) monomer have been fabricated. This paper discusses the processing conditions for the construction of these circuits and describes electrical characteristics of the dielectric layers. The relative dielectric constant of the BCB film was 2.7. Thermal cycling produced no significant change in the conductance of three level metal via chains through two layers of the polymer.

The capacitive method is considered to be a suitable icing-detection technology, but the lack of fundamental parameters restricts the development of icing-detection sensors. In this paper, an artificial icing laboratory, a capacitive sensor, and some simulation conductors have been designed for obtaining the artificial icing samples. Subsequently, the same characteristic values of artificial icing have been measured by an LCR device, under a selected frequency. This research found that the value of the icing dielectric constant closely correlated with its density, internal sublayer, and the test temperature. Finally, a fitting formula has been presented for calculating the relative dielectric constant, which may provide some important reference value for the design of icing-detection sensors.

We report structural analysis, surface morphology, magnetic ordering, dielectric response, optical feature and the electronic structure of the Dy2BiFeO6 novel complex perovskite. The samples were produced by the standard solid-state reaction recipe. Crystallographic analysis was performed by Rietveld refinement of experimental X-ray diffraction patterns. Results show that this material crystallizes in a perovskite with orthorhombic structure, which corresponds to the Pnma (#62) space group. From the Curie-Weiss fitting on the curve of susceptibility as a function of temperature we establish that the ordering corresponds to a paramagnetic-antiferromagnetic transition, with a Weiss temperature q=-18,5 K, which is compatible with the behavior of the inverse of susceptibility as a function of temperature, and a Néel temperatura TN=50,8 K. The Curie constant allowed for us to obtain an effective magnetic moment of 15,7 mB. The result of magnetization as a function of the applied field, measured at T=50 K, shows a magnetic hysteresis behavior that corroborate the magnetic ordering present for this temperature value. Measurements of the dielectric constant as a function of applied frequencies at room temperature give as a result a high relative dielectric constant (e=780). The reflectance curve as a function of the wavelength reveals the typical behavior of a double perovskite-like material and permits to obtain the energy gap 2,74 eV, which is characteristic of a semiconductor material.

The variations of dielectric constant and the amplitude of reflected EM wave of concrete during the first 3 days are measured with Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) at 20 oC. The amplitude decreases sharply after mixing with water, and then increases till a stabilized stage, followed by a gradual decline. The relative dielectric constant decreases with increasing hydrating time. The results show that the dielectric properties of concrete can be used as an effective way of studying the kinetics of concrete setting and hardening process at early ages.

In this study, the reduction of permittivity of LTCC substrates by coating with a polyimide compound containing hollow glass microspheres as filler material is described. By incorporating the filler material, the dielectric constant of the substrate material is locally lowered to improve the high-frequency performance of antennas operated in the GHz range. Furthermore, by adding the filler material to the liquid polyimide precursor the layer thickness is heightened from maximum 10 μm to above 80 μm which is enough to fill cavities in LTCC substrates. Two compound materials with filler to polymer ratios 1:7.5 and 1:10 are mixed. Afterwards they are deposited by spin coating onto LTCC substrates. The film thickness depends on the rotating speed and the filler content. With the higher filler concentration and low rotating speed of 500 rpm 82 μm thick polymer films can be achieved. The high surface roughness can be reduced afterwards by adding additional pure polyimide layers on top to Ra= 3 μm. The dielectric constant of the entire substrate consisting of the LTCC and the resulting compound material is measured using a ring resonator in microstrip configuration. From the resonances occurring in the transmission S-parameter |S21| spectrum between 1 to 10 GHz, the relative dielectric constant can be determined. Using 820 μm thick LTCC substrates a relatively low reduction from εr = 7.8 to 6.6 is achieved. However, due to permittivity can be reduced with higher microsphere amounts, the dielectric constant of pure polyimide of εr= 3.3 can also be reduced. Furthermore due to the sufficiently high film thickness of the modified substrates, the compound layer can be used as single dielectric layer.
