High electric field effects on gigahertz dielectric properties of water measured with microwave microfluidic devices.

چکیده
Silicon microstrip line devices with 260 nm planar microfluidic channels are fabricated and used to investigate water dielectric saturation effects. Microwave scattering parameter measurements are conducted from 1 to 16 GHz under different uniform dc electric fields. When the applied dc field is increased to approximately 1 MV/cm, the measured transmission coefficient S(21) is increased up to 18 dB, which indicates a large change in water dielectric properties. Extracted water permittivity (epsilon=epsilon'+jepsilon") shows that epsilon' and epsilon" are changed up to 70% and 50%, respectively.

An efficient solid-state approach was established to synthesize (K0.5Na0.5) NbO3 ceramics using calcination kinetics and microwave assisted sintering. Milling of carbonate and oxide raw materials were carried out for 15h to obtain homogeneous nano particles. The crystallite size of 5.30 nm was obtained for the KNN system after calcination through optimized parameters and observed to be stoichio...
متن کاملMicrowave dielectric heating of drops in microfluidic devices.
We present a technique to locally and rapidly heat water drops in microfluidic devices with microwave dielectric heating. Water absorbs microwave power more efficiently than polymers, glass, and oils due to its permanent molecular dipole moment that has large dielectric loss at GHz frequencies. The relevant heat capacity of the system is a single thermally isolated picolitre-scale drop of water...

Temperature is one of the important factors that affect to the coefficient of dielectric loss. Currently electronics is actively developing in the gigahertz frequency range. The frequency growth leads to the increasing of dielectric self-heating in the microwave electric field. Heating of dielectrics might be caused also by the external sources of heat. This paper presents the investigation of ...
متن کاملDielectric Properties of Cereals at Microwave Frequency and Their Bio Chemical Estimation
Dielectric properties of a material are intrinsic electrical properties that describe its polarization status when subjected to an electric field. At microwave frequencies, this polarization is orientational resulting from rotation of free water molecule in presence of electric field or reorientation of bound water molecules in association with the food molecules. The dielectric properties are ...
