Study of thick film Ni(1−x)CoxMn2O4,(0⩽x⩽1) using overlay technique on thick film microstrip ring resonator

The effect of thick film Ni(1−x)CoxMn2O4 in-touch overlay on the X band resonance characteristics of thick film microstrip ring resonator is studied. The thick film overlay decreases the resonance frequency and increases the peak output. From the frequency shift the dielectric constant of the thick film Ni(1−x)CoxMn2O4 has been calculated. For the first time Ag thick film microstrip ring resonator has been used to study thick film Ni(1−x)CoxMn2O4 in the X band.
