Conventional metallic waveguides have several major advantages, including low propagation losses and high power transmissions in the microwave frequency range. One disadvantage of metallic waveguides is that the propagation frequency band is limited at frequencies above the cutoff frequency fc. The usable frequency range is therefore restricted to fc < f < 2fc, because the TE20 mode can exist i...

We proposed the dielectric filling in a vgroove on GaAs wafer. In order to fabricate easily, the channel plasmon polaritons waveguide is proposed and analyzed, compared to conventional optical waveguide based on multi-epitaxial layer. The propagation loss is analyzed using 3-dimensional finite-difference time-domain method. We obtained the propagation loss of 1.02 dB / 30 μm.

experimental results of dielectric investigations for binary mixtures of 2, 3-butanediol, 2, 3-bd, in2-ethyl-1-hexanol, 2eh, were reported for various mole fractions and temperatures (298.2-308.2) kand they were used to calculate dielectric parameters such as kirkwood correlation factor, excesspermittivity and bruggeman parameter. these parameters were used to carry out temperaturedependent die...

Proton accelerator structures for medical applications using Dielectric Wall Accelerator (DWA) technology allow for the utilization of high electric field gradients on the order of 100 MV/m to accelerate the proton bunch. Medical applications involving cancer therapy treatment usually desire short bunch lengths on the order of hundreds of picoseconds in order to limit the extent of the energy d...

In this paper, lead free (K0.48,Na0.52)NbO3 (KNN(48-52)) piezoelectric ceramics were made by conventional solid state sintering process. Additives of nano ZnO (n-ZnO), nano CuO (n-CuO) and nano SnO2 (n-SnO2) were used in order to decrease the sintering temperature, as well as modifying the dielectric, piezoelectric and ferroelectric propert...

Glassy samples with a composition of 40P2O5&ndash;30V2O5&ndash;(30-x)Li2O&ndash; xK2O, 0<x<30 (mol %) were prepared by the conventional melt quenching technique in two forms of bulk and blown film. X-ray diffraction patterns corroborated the amorphous feature of the samples. Density of samples was investigated by using Archimedes principle. Based on absorption and reflection spectra, indirect a...

Fluorinated polyimide can potentially replace TEOS as an interlevel dielectric in future ULSI interconnect technologies because its lower dielectric constant offers reduced crosstalk, signal propagation delay, and dynamic power dissipation. One issue associated with polyimides is the anisotropy in dielectric constant, where the smaller out-of-plane dielectric constant, typically measured using ...

In this research, BaTiO3 thick deposit has been successfully sprayed by air plasma spray. The microstructure and dielectric properties of thick films were investigated by secondary electron microscopy (SEM) and LCR meter respectively. XRD measurement was carried out on plasma sprayed BaTiO3. The results illustrate differences in the crystal structure between plasma sprayed coatings and feed sto...
