Determination of Reference-Plane Invariant, Thickness-Independent, and Broadband Constitutive Parameters of Thin Materials
Özet
We propose an effective microwave method for reference-plane-invariant and thickness-independent constitutive parameters measurement of thin materials. A function depending only on the interface reflection coefficient to facilitate fast computations of constitutive parameters is derived. In addition to the extraction of sample thickness, the method can also be applied to unique retrieval of constitutive parameters whose electromagnetic properties are yet unknown. We have performed an uncertainty analysis to examine how the accuracy of the method can be improved. Finally, we have compared the proposed method with other similar methods in the literature using measurements of distilled water and a thinner Plexiglas sample (1 mm). From the comparison, we note that the accuracy of our proposed method is not affected by any inaccurate knowledge of reference-plane positions and the sample length (or both) while those of compared methods are seriously decreased. © 2015 IEEE.

Reference-plane invariant transmission-reflection method for measurement of constitutive parameters of liquid materials
Hasar U.C.; Barroso J.J.; Kaya Y.; Ertugrul M.; Bute M. (2013)We propose a new transmission-reflection method for measuring constitutive parameters of liquid samples inside an asymmetric measurement cell (a sample over a low-loss holder in vertical position inside an empty waveguide ... -
Reference-Plane-Invariant Effective Thickness and Electromagnetic Property Determination of Isotropic Metamaterials Involving Boundary Effects
Hasar U.C.; Barroso J.J.; Buldu G.; Bute M.; Kaya Y.; Karacali T.; Ertugrul M. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2015)It is well recognized that near-field effects become dominant when the metamaterial (MM) is in resonance. In addition, any inaccurate information of the location of reference planes, and the effective length can seriously ... -
