Millimeter-wave dielectric ceramics have been used like applications for ultrahigh speed wireless LAN because it reduces the resources of electromagnetic wave, and Intelligent Transport System (ITS) because of straight propagation wave. For millimeterwave, the dielectric ceramics with high quality factor (Q$.$f), low dielectric constant($\varepsilon$), and nearly zero temperature coefficient of resonant frequency ($\tau$) are needed. No microwave dielectric ceramics with these three properties exist except Ba(Mg$\_$1/3/Ta/sub1/3/)O$_3$ (BMT), which has a little high s: In this paper, alumina (Al$_2$O$_3$) and fosterite (Mg$_2$SiO$_4$), candidates for millimeter-wave applications, were studied with an objective to get high q$.$f and nearly zero $\tau$$\_$f/ For alumina ceramics, q$.$f more than 680,000 GHz was obtained but it was difficult to obtain nearly zero Qf. On the other hand, for forsterite ceramics, q$.$f was achieved from 10,000 GHz of commercial for sterite to 240,000 GHz of highly purified MgO and SiO$_2$ raw materials, and $\tau$$\_$f/ was reduced a few by adding TiO$_2$ with high positive $\tau$$\_$f/.

본 논문에서는 밀리미터파 대역에서 다양한 매질들에 대한 유전적 특성의 측정을 통해 유전율 결과를 제시하였다. 밀리미터파는 짧은 파장과 넓은 대역폭을 가지고 있어 부품의 소형화, 경량화가 가능하고, 정보의 대량 전송이 가능하다는 장점을 가지고 있기 때문에 그 연구의 필요성이 높아지고 있다. 이 대역의 전파는 직진성이 뛰어나고 회절성이 작으며 여러 물질들에서 전파가 흡수되어 불필요한 간섭이 잘 발생하지 않는 특징을 가지고 있다. 그렇기 때문에 밀리미터파 대역의 전파가 진행하는 과정에서 반사 투과하는 다양한 매질들의 전기적인 특성에 대한 분석이 중요할 것이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 밀리미터파 대역에서 Free Space 방식을 이용하여 물질의 반사 투과 특성을 측정하였다. 이를 활용하여 Nicolson-Ross Weir 유전율 계산법을 이용해 다양한 매질들의 유전율을 도출하였다.

A sandwich structure of dielectric material and air gap inside a rectangular waveguide is proposed as a fast electrically tunable low-loss phase shifter. As the dielectric material is shifted up and down by piezoelectric actuator and, thereby, the thickness of air gap is changed, the effective dielectric constant of the sandwich structure is varied. Phase shifters based on the sandwich structure with different dielectric materials showed phase shift of $20{\sim}200^{\circ}/cm$ at X-band as the thickness of air gap varied up to $30{\mu}m$. The idea can be extended toward low-loss millimeter wave phase shifters since modem microwave ceramics have been developed to show very low dielectric loss$(tan\;{\delta}{\sim}10^{-4})$.

Indialite/cordierite glass-ceramics demonstrate excellent microwave dielectric properties such as a low dielectric constant of 4.7 and an extremely high quality factor Qf of more than 200 × 10³ GHz when crystallized at 1300℃/20 h, which are essential criteria for application to 5G/6G mobile communication systems. The glass-ceramics applied to dielectric resonators, low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) substrates, and direct casting glass substrates are reviewed in this paper. The glass-ceramics are fabricated by the crystallization of glass with cordierite composition melted at 1550℃. The dielectric resonators are composed of crystallized glass pellets made from glass rods cast in a graphite mold. The LTCC substrates are made from indialite glass-ceramic powder crystallized at a low temperature of 1000℃/1 h, and the direct casting glass-ceramic substrates are composed of crystallized glass plates cast on a graphite plate. All these materials exhibit excellent microwave dielectric properties.

A filtering power divider based on air-filled substrate-integrated waveguide (AFSIW) technology is proposed in this study. The AFSIW structure is used in the proposed filtering power divider for substantially reducing the transmission losses. This structure occupies a large area because of the use of air as a dielectric instead of typical dielectric materials. A filtering power divider provides power division and frequency selectivity simultaneously in a single device. The proposed filtering power divider comprises three AFSIW cavities. The filtering function is achieved using symmetrical inductive posts. The input and output ports of the proposed circuit are realized by directly connecting coaxial lines to the AFSIW cavities. This transition from the coaxial line to the AFSIW cavity eliminates the additional transitions, such as AFSIW-SIW and SIW-conductor-backed coplanar waveguide, applied in existing AFSIW circuits. The proposed power divider with a second-order bandpass filtering response is fabricated and measured at 5.5 GHz. The measurement results show that this circuit has a minimum insertion loss of 1 dB, 3-dB fractional bandwidth of 11.2%, and return loss exceeding 11 dB.

With the advent of ubiquitous age, the high quality dielectric materials have been required for the wireless communications available to the millimeterwave as well as microwave frequencies. The utilizable region for the frequency has been expanding to the millimeter-wave region because of the shortage of radio frequency (RF) resources. These high frequencies would be expected for ultra high speed LAN, ETS and car anti-collision system on the intelligent transport system (ITS) and so on. Silicates are good candidates for microwave/millimeterwave dielectrics, because of their low dielectric constant ${\epsilon}_r$ and high quality factor (High Q). Forsterite ($Mg_2SiO_4$) is one of the silicates with low ${\epsilon}_r$ of 6.8 and Q f of 240000 GHz. In this paper, we reviewed following three categories for synthesis of forsterite: (1) Synthesis of high Q forsterite (2) Adjust the temperature coefficient of resonant frequency $TC_f$ (3) Diffusion of $SiO_{4^-}$ and Mg-ions on the formation of forsterite.
