Abstract :
In this paper, a new dielectric measurement technique has been developed. A circular parallel plate capacitor structure was used in investigating the complex permittivity of a thin film. The full-wave analysis has been done and a simple and explicit relationship between the complex permittivity and the modal impedance has been obtained at the resonant frequencies. To investigate our measurement technique, the high order mode calculation was carried out and good results near the modal resonant frequencies was achieved
