A scanning microwave ellipsometer includes: a microwave ellipsometry test head including: a polarization controller; a transmission line; and a sensor that produces sensor microwave radiation, subjects a sample to the sensor microwave radiation, receives a sample reflected microwave radiation from
New strong, light, and compact formed carbon fiber components require shorter, higher-aspect ratio carbon fibers. Shorter carbon fibers must be aligned to realize the desired tensile strength. Before this invention, industry lacked a tool to characterize carbon fiber alignment for inline quality
A noncontact resonameter includes: a resonator to: produce an excitation signal including a field; subject a sample to the excitation signal; produce a first resonator signal in a presence of the sample and the excitation signal, the first resonator signal including: a first quality factor of the
