Abstract

BST Ferroelectric Frequency Tuning U-slot Antenna
A tunable U-slot microstrip patch antenna has two different antenna substrates operating around 5.4GHz. This design employs the BST material manganese-doped Ba0.8Sr0.2TiO3 soft ferroelectric thin films with relative dielectric permittivity of >150 and loss tangent of <0.02 to provide a practical frequency tuning. It is found that incorporating BST in the same plane within a U-slot gap in a microstrip patch can provide frequency tuning of 70MHz at 5.65GHz with an appropriate electric field of 19kV/cm.
