Article Citation - Scopus: 2Mixture-Based Dielectric Permittivity Measurements Through Gallium-Excited Cavities(Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers inc, 2024) Karatay, Anil; Yaman, FatihIn dielectric measurements within resonant cavities, analytical perturbation methods encounter limitations, particularly with nonstandard cavity shapes and lossy materials under test (MUTs) having high dielectric constant. In such cases, the demand for iterative techniques to improve accuracy and flexibility is evident, but the efficiency of the existing iterative techniques, relying on numerical electromagnetic solvers, is often compromised, particularly in terms of time. Therefore, we introduce a novel methodology for measuring the permittivity of dielectric materials using liquid mixtures. This novel method employs a rapid iterative technique in which effective permittivity values are reconstructed at each iteration step based on the volume fraction of liquid mixtures, thus eliminating the dependence on time-consuming 3-D numerical solvers. In addition, we aim to achieve dual-band measurements at 2.45 and 5.8 GHz, enhancing precision by separating mode frequencies. Introducing a re-entrant cavity-like structure, we position the first mode at 2.45 GHz and the second at 5.8 GHz, effectively mitigating intermodal crosstalk and ensuring measurement accuracy. Also, for the first time in the literature, determining which mode will be excited in a cavity by the coupler probe made of gallium can be achieved through the displacement of the liquid metal, which enables measurements to be taken exclusively at the desired frequency.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Liquid Metal-Tunable Miniaturized Bimodal Cavity for Enhanced Measurement Accuracy in the Ism Bands(Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers inc, 2024) Karatay, Anil; Yaman, FatihEnhancing measurement accuracy or reducing the effect of the neighboring modes in resonant cavities may necessitate the separation of mode frequencies. However, in ISM-band measurement configurations utilizing a rectangular or cylindrical cavity, the placement of the first two modes at 2.45 and 5.8 GHz is unattainable, necessitating the presence of additional modes in between that would potentially degrade measurement accuracy. This article begins with an analytical approach, employing Lagrange multipliers for the first time to reveal the level of separation achievable in the frequency domain between the initial two modes within these types of conventional cavities. The analytical results were also verified with a numerical grid search. Subsequently, innovative strategies have been introduced to surpass this intrinsic constraint that reduces the measurement accuracy in various applications. A novel miniaturized cavity configuration has been proposed to operate bimodally at 2.45 and 5.8 GHz and manufactured with a 3-D printer. It has been ensured that there are no physical modes present in between, and measurements of the structure have been conducted. Another notable innovation of the article is the capability of tuning the proposed cavity structure by means of liquid metal displacement. Thus, a more flexible tuning method compared to mechanical tuning techniques can be achieved, enabling precise adjustment of the desired measurement frequency. Good agreement between the simulation and measurement results has been reported.
