Abstract
The small signal dielectric properties (epsilon, tan delta) of ceramic (Ba, Sr)TiO3 (BSTO) films in the frequency range (1-30) GHz we're under investig ation. The Q-factor and tunability were measured for planar BSTO ceramic va ractors and are presented in comparison with similar parameters for semicon ductor varactors. To illustrate the possibility of the use of BSTO ceramic films at 30 GHz, a phase shifter based on grounded coplanar waveguide (CWG) has been designed and experimentally tested. The device demonstrated phase shift up to Delta phi = 370 degrees under the bias voltage (0-350) V and i nsertion loss L = (4-6) dB in all range of bias voltages.
