An effective method for fabrication of 3-D dielectric materials using polymer-ceramic composites

An effective method for fabrication of 3-D heterogeneous dielectric materials is presented. The proposed technique utilizes the inherent fluidity of polymer-ceramic materials, as well as the adjustable dielectric constant of such materials by controlling the loading fraction. A monocone antenna loaded with a hemisphere of dielectric material is presented to illustrate the fabrication process of 3-D non-planar devices by injecting the prepared polymer-ceramic materials into 3-D printed molds.
