Abstract
An original method based on determining the characteristics of open Fabry-Perot resonator modes with different polarizations is proposed for measuring parameters of dielectric plates and films with a thickness smaller than λ/2 in the millimeter and submillimeter wavelength ranges. This method is used for determining the refractive index and tanδ, as well as the thickness of films made of isotropic materials. For anisotropic films of known thickness, the method makes it possible to measure the permittivity tensor components. Popular film materials such as Teflon (polytetrafluoroethylene, PTFE), lavsan (Mylar, polyethyleneterephthalate, PETP), and polyamide with a minimal thickness of ∼5 μm are investigated. Appreciable anisotropy of roll film materials and the dependence of the dielectric properties on the thickness, which is associated with manufacturing technology, are revealed. The dependence of the refractive index and tanδ on the air humidity is investigated
