Formation rate of tetragonal BaTiO$_3$powder by hydrothermal synthesis and its dielectric property were studied. Submicron tetragonal BaTiO$_3$ powders were prepared hydrothermally, using Ba(OH)$_2$.8$H_2O$, TiO$_2$(anatase) and KOH as starting chemicals. Characterization via X-ray diffractometry, field emission scanning electron microscopy confirmed that increasing calcination temperatures(from 1100 to 130$0^{\circ}C$) promotes the formation of tetragonal BaTiO$_3$. Tetragonal BaTiO$_3$ ceramics, obtained by calcining at 1200 for 3 h after hydrothermal synthesis at 200 for 168 h, exhibited submicron size of 0.5 ~ 0.7 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and high relative permittivity.

A cubic perovskite-type CaCu₃Ti₄O/sub 12/ compound has recently drawn a great attention because of an extraordinary high permittivity (～10⁴ at 1 kHz) at room temperature and its near temperature-independence over a wide temperature region, and thus numerous literature have been reported on CCTO polycrytalline ceramics and thin films. However, only a few literature have been reported on the CCTO single due to the lack of information about the CCTO primary phase field. On the basis of our recent experimental determination of the CCTO primary phase field, we could grow ACu₃Ti₄O/sub 12/(A=Ca, Sr) single crystals using both top-seeded solution growth and flux growth methods. This presentation will include three major parts. In part I, the thermal decomposition reaction of CCTO and its primary phase field in the CaO-CuO-TiO₂ ternary system will be presented. Detailed growth conditions of ACu₃Ti₄O/sub 12/(A=Ca, Sr) single crystals and characteristics of as-grown crystals will be followed in Part II. Part III will be comprised of dielectric properties of as-grown ACu₃Ti₄O/sub 12/(A=Ca, Sr) single crystals. Our experimental results will be compared with those of previous reports for discussion.

Dielectric properties of $C_{22}$-Quinolium(TCNQ) Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films were studied as a function of frequency(10Hz-13MHz) and annealing temperature($20{\sim}240^{\circ}C$). A complex dielectric constant ${\epsilon}^*={\epsilon}'-i{\epsilon}"$, in general, shows the frequency dependence of orientational polarization in the measured frequency range. A dielectric permittivity ${\epsilon}'$ at 10Hz is around 8.2 and decreases very slowly as the frequency increases up to 1 MHz, and then suddenly drops above this frequency, while a dielectric loss factor ${\epsilon}"$ reaches a maximum near 1 MHz. Its annealing temperature dependence at 10Hz shows that ${\epsilon}'$ and ${\epsilon}"$ increase as the temperature increases upto $180^{\circ}C$, even though there is a little drop near $120{\sim}160^{\circ}C$. Both ${\epsilon}'$ and ${\epsilon}"$ drop quickly above $180^{\circ}C$. which may be thought of a destruction of the LB films. Another fact of the annealing temperature dependence of the dielectric constant is an occurrence of the new dielectric dispersion below 100Hz. This low frequency dispersion is getting clear above $80^{\circ}C$.

This paper presents a study on the permittivities of the carbon black/epoxy composite at microwave frequency. The measurements were performed at the frequency band of $1\;GHz\~18\;GHz$. The experimental data show that the complex permittivities of composites depend strongly on the natures and concentrations of the carbon black dispersion. The frequency characteristics of dielectric constants and ac conductivities of composites show the good conformity with descriptions of the percolation theory, satisfying the general scaling relation. The measuring frequency band is over the critical frequency, below that the ac conductivities of composites are constant to the frequency. The values of dielectric constants and ac conductivities have consistent relationships with the carbon black concentration. The A new scheme, that is a branch of Lichtenecker-Rother formula, is proposed to obtain a mixing law to describe the complex permittivities of the composites as function frequency and concentration of carbon black.

We studied the effects of the Zr/Ti ration and the bottom electrode (Pt or ITO) on the electrical properties of PZT thin films prepared by sol-gel method. Their permittivities and tagent losses with the variation of frequencies were measured by the LCR meter and their maximum polarizations, remanent polarizations, and coercive fields were obtained from the hysteresis loops measured by the Sawyer-Tower circuit. For the PZT thin film of the Zr/Ti ration of 53/47, permittivity at 10kHz, coercive field, maximum and remanent polarizations ere measured as 952, 20.7kV/cm, 10.43${\mu}C/cm^{2}$ and 4.3${\mu}C/cm^{2}$, respectively. For the film of the Zr/Ti ration of 25/75, coercive field, maximum and remanent polarizations were measured as 33.12kV/cm, 5.59${\mu}C/cm^{2}$ and 1.5${\mu}C/cm^{2}$, respectively. For the film of the Zr/Ti ratio of 75/25, they were measured as 23.8kV/cm, 7.45${\mu}C/cm^{2}$, and 3.5${\mu}C/cm^{2}$, repectively. Our investigation into the effects of the lower electrode on the electrical properties of PZT films showed the following results. The permittivities of the PZT films deposited on the ITO electrode decreased more quickly than those of the PZT films on the Pt electrode. The tangent losses of the former films increased more quickly than those of the latter. These may be due to the degradation of the quality of the interface between the electrode and the film, which results from the diffusion of Pb. It is also noticeable that permittivities and tangent losses of the PZT films deposited on the ITO electrode varied differently with the Zr/Ti ratio. This may indicate that the quality of the interface between the electrode and the film changes with the Zr/Ti ration of the PZT film.

This paper presents a modified microwave radio-thermometer (MRTM) with material characteristic estimator and multiple temperature conversion tables to measure subcutaneous temperature of a living body This estimator provides a temperature retrieval unit with the data of material characteristics such as permittivity, conductivity, thickness and geometry of the living body. The temperature retrieval unit with multiple temperature conversion tables can select one of the tables and computes temperature value corresponding to measured radiation power. In the experiments, it was shown that the MRTM could reduce measurement errors of about $0.82^{\circ}C\;to\;7.68^{\circ}C$ for the cases of distilled water and mixed liquid at the temperature of $37^{\circ}C$.

The wideband annular ring slot antenna with concentric radiating structure and low impedance feedline has been presented. This antenna has been analyzed in compensation for FR-4 substrate with relative permittivity 4.3 and thickness 1 mm. As the measured 10 dB impedance bandwidth of the proposed antenna is 127.2%(2.17∼9.76 GHz), its bandwidth is much broader than maximum 82% bandwidth of a conventional annular ring slot antenna. Experimental results from 2 to 10 GHz are shown to be in good agreement with the simulation. And this antenna has a high gain above 4 dBi from 2 GHz to 10 GHz as well as a 24% size reduction and 42% area reduction than a circular slot antenna.

A radius of ring resonator is determined by the resonant frequency. Resonant frequencies of resonators with the circumference which is integer times of wave length are not same the expected. In this paper, we suggest the design method of a ring resonator with coupling gap, which has the resonant frequency of desire. The equation which can make reduction of the radius of the resonators depending on the gap space is derived by the method of transmission line analysis. The criterion is suggested to determine the radius of the resonator in accordance with relative permittivity. A ring resonator by the proposed method is as small as one-third of basic ring in size and it has the resonant frequency of desire. T-type coupling line is designed to obtain large attenuation of $S_{11}$ at pass-band. These coupling line capacitances are very lower than the gap capacitances, it does not affect the resonant frequency.
