J. Bakerjarvis et Md. Janezic, ANALYSIS OF A 2-PORT FLANGED COAXIAL HOLDER FOR SHIELDING EFFECTIVENESS AND DIELECTRIC MEASUREMENTS OF THIN-FILMS AND THIN MATERIALS, IEEE transactions on electromagnetic compatibility, 38(1), 1996, pp. 67-70
A two-port Banged coaxial probe for measuring the dielectric and magne
tic properties of thin material sheets is analyzed. Closed form soluti
ons for the two-port scattering parameters are presented. The solution
assumes an incident TEM wave together with evanescent TM(on) modes. N
umerical results are obtained for both the forward and inverse problem
, Computations indicate that at low frequencies the incident waves are
almost totally reflected, As the frequency is increased, transmission
through the sample increases, Experimental results compare closely wi
th theory, The inverse solution yielded good permittivity determinatio
n for the cases tested, The technique should prove useful for nondestr
uctive testing of circuit boards or substrates.
