介电常数微弱变化的高灵敏度测试技术

    High Sensitive Technology for Measurement of Small Permittivity Changes

    • 摘要: 提出了一种测量介电常数微弱变化的新型传感器。该传感器利用幅度相同、相位相反的两路信号的相互抵消作用,来消除背景噪声,达到提高灵敏度的作用。此装置主要包括两个相同的威尔金森功分器、一个同相巴伦和一个180°反相巴伦。通过对去离子水与不同浓度乙醇溶液之间介电常数的差异的测量可知,该传感器能够探测到的介电常数的最小绝对变化和相对变化分别为1.68%和2.07% ,与微波湿度传感器相比,所提出的传感器的灵敏度更高。

       

      Abstract: A sensitive sensor for measurement of dielectric property small changes is proposed. Interference is used to cancel parasitic background signals to improve sensitivity. The device consists of two Wilkinson power dividers, a 180 degree reversephase and an inphase CPW (coplanar waveguide)slotline backtoback balun. The dielectric property small changes between deionize water and alcoholwater mixtures with different concentrations in terms of molar fractions are measured with clear sensing and identification. Experimental results show that the smallest absolute and relative permittivity changes are 1.68 and 2.07% respectively across the sensitive sensor, compared with microwave soil moisture sensors the proposed device is more sensitive. 
