Abstract
Two techniques are evaluated for the accurate measurement of the microwave permittivity of polycrystalline yttrium iron garnet (YIG) at frequencies between 5.5 and 12.5 GHz: split post dielectric resonator (SPDR) and ferrite disc resonator (Courtney). Both techniques separate YIG permittivity from that of YIG permeability by applying a magnetic induction bias to the YIG sample under test. The SPDR method needs no special sample preparation in the case of YIG substrates, whereas the Courtney method requires the grinding of rods from bulk YIG. The Courtney measurements of the YIG real permittivity are found to be higher on average than SPDR measurements. Agreement between the two techniques improves with increasing magnetic induction bias.
