The aim of the work, the results of which are presented in the framework of the article, was to study the of electromagnetic radiation interaction laws in the frequency range 0.7…17 GHz with two-layer structures, the surface layer of which was made using powdered titanium dioxide, and the inner layer was made using a powder material based on oxide ferric iron. The thickness of the layers of the studied structures varied from 0.3 to 1 cm. To achieve this goal, theobjectives associated with the development of a methodology for the manufacture of multilayer structures based on composite materials containing transition metal oxides, as well as with the measurement of such structures samples electromagnetic radiation reflection and transmission coefficients in the frequency range 0.7...17 GHz. These measurements were carried out using a panoramic meter of reflection and transmission coefficients SNA 0.01–17. Based on the obtained measurement results, it was shown that in the frequency range 0.7…2 GHz, the lowest values of electromagnetic radiation reflection coefficient, reaching –20 dB, are characterized by structures whose surface layer thickness is 1 cm, and in the range 2 ... 17 GHz – structures, thickness the surface layer of which is 0.5 or 1 cm (depending on the thickness of the inner layer). The values of electromagnetic radiation transmission coefficient in the frequency range of 0.7...17 GHz of such structures reach –23 dB. Based on the results of the study, it is proposed to use the considered structures in the process of creating shielded rooms or improving the latter (for example, in cases, when it's necessary to reduce the level of passive interference in rooms shielded with metal materials).

A modified Nicholson – Ross – Weir method was used to determine complex parameters and dielectric permittivity of ceramic materials in the range 78.33–118.1 GHz. The measuring equipment is a meter of complex reflection and transmission coefficients, a waveguide measuring canal with a special measuring cell, consisting of two irregular waveguides and a waveguide chamber between them, which provides insignificant influence of higher-order modes. The dependences of the amplitude and phase of the reflection and transmission coefficients on frequency were obtained experimentally for fluoroplastic and three ceramic samples in the frequency range 78.33–118.1 GHz. The obtained S-parameters are processed according to an algorithm that includes their averaging based on the Fourier transform in order to obtain the values of the dielectric permittivity. Fluoroplastic was used as a reference material with a known dielectric constant. The dielectric constant of fluoroplastic has a stable value of 2.1 in the above mentioned frequency range. The dielectric constant of sample No. 1 varies from 3.6 to 2.5 at the boundaries of the range, sample No. 2 – from 3.7 to 2.1, sample No. 3 – from 2.9 to 1.5. The experimental data are in satisfactory agreement with the literature data for other frequencies taking into account the limits set by the measurement uncertainty.

The  article  presents  the  results  of  experimental  substantiation  of  the  method  for  improving the shielding  properties  of  composite  coatings  based  on  powdered  alumina  (electrocorundum,  alum  earth), which  consists  in  modifying  the  composition  of  such  coatings  by adding  to  it  powdered  iron  oxide. This experimental substantiation consisted in the development of the technique for obtaining composite coatings based on powdered alumina and iron oxide, the manufacture of the experimental samplesusing the developed technique,  measurements  of  electromagnetic  radiation  reflection and  transmission  coefficients  values in the frequency range 0.7…17.0 GHz of the manufactured samples; implementation of the comparative analysis of the measured values with the similar values typical for the composite coatings filled with powdered alumina oxides, and composite coatings with the fillers such as powdered iron oxide. The obtained results revealed that by  adding  powdered  iron  oxide  to  the  composite  coatings  based  on powdered  alumina  oxides,  it  is  possible to reduce by 1.0…8.0 dB their electromagnetic radiation transmission coefficient values in the frequency range 0.7…17.0 GHz. In addition, we found that the implementation of the proposed method allows one to decrease by  2.0…20.0  dB  the  electromagnetic  radiation  reflection  coefficient  values  in  the  specified  frequency  range of the considered composite coatings, if such are applied to metal substrates. We propose to use the composite coatings, obtained on the base of the substantiated method, in order to ensure the electromagnetic compatibility of radio-electronic equipment.

The results of the development of electromagnetic radiation shields with flexibility and minor weight and size parameters are presented. Needle-punched material was chosen as the basis for the shields of electromagnetic radiation, which was coated with conductive or dielectric coatings. It has been proved that when applied to a needle-punched material of thin (up to 5 mm) conductive or dielectric coatings, the ultimate strength increases to 5–10 kgf/mm2 and the surface resistance decreases to 0.05 MOhm/sq, while the weight and size parameters of the shields do not change significantly. It was shown that the frequency dependencies of the reflection and transmission coefficients correlate for coatings of various types. A sample of an electromagnetic radiation shields based on a needle-punched coated material consisting of powdered shungite has a reflection coefficient measured in the short circuit mode is about –22.8 dB in the 2–4 GHz frequency range, which allows to use this material to ensure electromagnetic compatibility, information security and personnel protection from electromagnetic radiation.

A contactless and non-destructive microwave method has been developed to characterize silicon semiconductor wafers from reflection and transmission measurements made at normal incidence using MNDT. The measurement system consists of a pair of spot-focusing horn lens antenna, mode transitions, coaxial cables and a vector network analyzer (VNA). In this method, the free-space reflection and transmission coefficients, S11 and S21 are measured for silicon wafers sandwiched between two Teflon plates of 5mm thickness which act as a quarter-wave transformer at mid-band. The actual reflection and transmission coefficients, S11 and S21 of the silicon wafers are then calculated from the measured S11 and S21 using ABCD matrix transformation in which the complex permittivity and thickness of the Teflon plates are known. From the complex permittivity, the resistivity and conductivity can be obtained. Results for p-type and n-type doped silicon wafers are reported in the frequency range of 11 – 12.5 GHz. The dielectric constant of silicon wafer obtained by this method agrees well with that measured in the same frequency range by other conventional methods.

It has been known for a long time that electron irradiation induces damage in maximal valence transition metal oxides such as TiO2, V2O5, and WO3, of which transition metal ions have an empty d-shell. This type of damage is excited by electronic transition and can be explained by the Knoteck-Feibelman mechanism (K-F mechanism). Although the K-F mechanism predicts that no damage should occur in transition metal oxides of which the transition metal ions have a partially filled d-shell, namely submaximal valence transition metal oxides, our recent study on ReO3 shows that submaximal valence transition metal oxides undergo damage during electron irradiation.ReO3 has a nearly cubic structure and contains a single unit in its cell: a = 3.73 Å, and α = 89°34'. TEM specimens were prepared by depositing dry powders onto a holey carbon film supported on a copper grid. Specimens were examined in Hitachi H-9000 and UHV H-9000 electron microscopes both operated at 300 keV accelerating voltage. The electron beam flux was maintained at about 10 A/cm2 during the observation.

Oxygen-bearing minerals are generally strong insulators (e.g. silicates), or if not (e.g. transition metal oxides), they are included within a rock matrix which electrically isolates them from the sample holder contacts. In this respect, a thin carbon layer (150 Å in our laboratory) is evaporated on the sections in order to restore the conductivity. For silicates, overestimated oxygen concentrations are usually noted when transition metal oxides are used as standards. These trends corroborate the results of Bastin and Heijligers on MgO, Al2O3 and SiO2. According to our experiments, these errors are independent of the accelerating voltage used (fig.l).Owing to the low density of preexisting defects within the Al2O3 single-crystal, no significant charge buildup occurs under irradiation at low accelerating voltage (< 10keV). As a consequence, neither beam instabilities, due to electrical discharges within the excited volume, nor losses of energy for beam electrons before striking the sample, due to the presence of the electrostatic charge-induced potential, are noted : measurements from both coated and uncoated samples give comparable results which demonstrates that the carbon coating is not the cause of the observed errors.
