Abstract
We introduce a semi-numerical method to extract the loss tangent of low-loss microwave substrate materials from on-wafer scattering-parameter measurements in a wide frequency range. We compare to split-cylinder resonator measurements and demonstrate good agreement using structures built on GaAs and alumina substrates.
