The radiation and reception patterns of devices become more complicated as the measurement frequency is increased. These complicated patterns pose a challenge to EMC emission/immunity tests where the direction of maximum radiation/reception needs to be

The use of fitting models in the time-domain analysis of electromagnetic problems is of great interest. The aim of this paper is to describe the main features of different fitting models, and the key issues related to their use and practical implementation

This is an overview of dielectric measurement methods and metrology on substrate materials used in electronic packaging. These substrates include low-temperature co-fired ceramic, high-temperature co-fired ceramic substrates, printed wiring board, and

High frequency measurements of the transverse susceptibility and damping constant of CoFeHfo thin films have been made over a frequency range of 0.1 GHz to 6 GHz as a function of film resistivity, thickness, and temperature. The films show relatively low

We construct a series of microwave transmission lines in microstrip and co-planar waveguide. These structures incorporate metallic ferromagnetic and dielectric films and therefore exhibit strongly frequency-dependent attenuation and phase-shift effects

We describe a new type of magnetometer based on a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) for in situ monitoring of magnetic film moment during the film deposition process. The magnetometer measured mechanical torque on a film as it is deposited onto a
Abstract: We develop analytic expressions for the impulse response and kickout pulses of a simple sampling circuit that incorporate the nonlinear junction capacitance of the sampling diode. We examine the effects of both the time-varying junction
Ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) measurements were performed on micron-size thin-film samples integrated onto a micromechanical detector. The FMR response is coupled to cantilever motion in one of three ways. 1) Measure the change in torque on the sample in a
A transfer matrix Transmission line method is applied to a modified doubly-reentrant cavity for evaluating the tunable properties of bulk ferroelectric materials at rf frequencies. The transverse resonator impedance of the equivalent circuit model of the
We investigated magnetic hysteresis in transport critical-current (I c) measurement of Ag-matrix (B i,Pb) 2Sr 2Ca 2Cu 3O^10-x^ *Bi-2223) and AgMg-matrix Bi 2Sr 2CaCu 2O 8+X (Bi-2212) tapes. The effect of magnetic hysteresis on the measured critical current

We address the difficult problem of determining measurement consistency between two vector nonlinear network analyzers, a new class of stimulus-response instruments that acquire multiharmonic waveform data instead of normalized network parameters. We

We apply frequency-domain impedance mismatch corrections to a temporal electro-optic sampling system. We identify and evaluate additional sources of measurement uncertainty. We use the system to characterize the magnitude and phase response of a

We examine the effects of nonlinear diode junction capacitance on the fundamental premise of the noise-to-nose calibration, that the kickout is identical in shape to the impulse response of the sampler. We offer a physical explanation for the error

We present numerical data on normalized cutoff wavelength versus cone half-angle for the first three higher-order TE ml modes, as well as four other modes of interest, in conical coaxial transmission lines (the co-conical line). These are given as a
We fabricate coplanar waveguide transmission lines with thin-film Fe o.2Ni o.8 conductors. These lines demonstrate a power attenuation of 10 dB/cm at ferromagnetic resonance frequencies of 5 to 10 GHz for applied magnetic fields less than 80 kA/m (1 kOe)
We review a century of metrology research and development in the U.S. that paralleled the birth of radio/wireless and other electromagnetic field technologies. The interplay between the scientific and technological advances and the research, measurement
A general Sommerfeld integral formulation is given for the electromagnetic (EM) fields of an oscillating vertical Magnetic or electric dipole over an electrically inhomogeneous thin sheet. The electrical properties of the sheet are characterized by a

Measurements of the complex permittivity of commonly used packaging materials, as a function of temperature, in the frequency range of 1-60 GHz are presented. The results were obtained using a re-entrant cavity, a split cylinder cavity, a split post
