Title :
Surface Characteristics of Metals and Waveguide Attenuation at Millimeter-Wave Frequencies Between 25 and 160 GHz
Author :
Tischer, Frederick J.
Abstract :
The discrepancies between theoretical and experimental values of the surface resistance of metals are analyzed. Experiments with carefully prepared plane and rough copper surfaces and precision measurements of waveguide losses are described and the results discussed.
