Techniques for temperature-dependent dielectric measurements: a review

Abstract

In this paper, a preliminary review of the dielectric measurement methods as a function of both frequency and temperature is presented. In particular, the two most popular approaches for heating the samples up to ablative temperatures (i.e., water bath and antenna applicator) and two dielectric measurement setups (i.e. open-ended coaxial probe and resonant cavity) are analysed and compared, highlighting the pros and cons of each approach.
