The coplanar waveguides were manufactured on alumina substrates (Al2O3) with 3 mu m of gold (Au) metallization using the laser ablation technique. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with X-ray energy dispersion spectrometry (EDS) showed the existence of a BTO film with an elementary composition of 14.62% barium and 5.65% titanium, with a thickness of 0.77 mu m measured using the profilometric mode of the atomic force microscopy (AFM). Dielectric characterization was carried out by comparing the frequency response (parameter S-21) of a CPW resonator with deposited BTO film and another reference resonator (without film) using a network vector analyzer (VNA). These measurements are compared in turn with computational simulations to obtain the dielectric properties. For the BTO film was determined a relative dielectric constant constant (epsilon r) of 160 with a loss tangent (Tan delta) of 0.012 for a frequency of 3.60 GHz. The dielectric constant constant and the ferroelectric property of the material produced are quite promising for applications in microwave circuits, such as miniaturization and tuning.enghttps://v2.sherpa.ac.uk/id/publication/issn/0121-1129Microwave Frequency Characterization of Barium Titanate Films Obtained Via Sol-Gelinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articledielectric constantferroelectricsmicrowave materialsloss tangentSol-Gelthin films2021-04-12Marulanda-Bernal, Jose-IgnacioGallo-Castrillon, Wilson-HenryMosquera-Palacio, Diana-Marybel10.19053/01211129.v29.n54.2020.10416
