  • Abstract
    This paper reports an improved Fabry-Perot open resonator operating at 60 GHz which is used to measure the dielectric properties of low-absorbing materials. Two techniques are employed, namely, frequency-variation and cavity-length-variation techniques. High resolution can be reached as small as 10 nanometers, which makes the resonator an accurate system to provide precise measurements.
