  • Abstract
    The use of whispering gallery modes allows the dielectric loss tangent of polycrystalline Al2O3 (alumina) to be accurately determined at microwave frequencies without the use of a cavity. The dielectric loss tangent of alumina is shown to be strongly variable from sample to sample with a lowest measured value of 4.3×10-5 observed at 9.0 GHz in a 99.5% alumina sample
