Hi all;

I have to jump in to add my 2 cents for all it's worth. First of all the =
realative dielectric constant is not frequency dependent - you can =
explain light dispersion not by a variation of dielectic with frequency =
but a variation of speed in the medium with the relative dielectric =
constant . Velocity =3D frequency times wavelength , wavelength is equal =
to the wavelength divided by the square root of the relative dielectric =
constant- white light is made up of a spectrum of varying wavelengths =
all traveling at the same speed in air however in a medium their speeds =
differ and that is why you see a seperation. the only way you will see a =
variation in the dielectric constant is in  a non-homogenous medium. On =
the other hand if a medium has any conductivity to it you will see a =
variation with the loss tangent with frequency.

Regards

Justin

Thanks for the information.  I'm still a bit confused.  For further =3D
clarification:

In your first point, you imply that, for a homogenous medium, dispersion =
=3D
is not possible (and Pozar implies this same thing for a TEM plane wave =
=3D
on page 170 of his book).  Is that correct? =3D20

I thought Er could vary with F.  For instance, in optics, v =3D3D c/n, =
=3D
where v is the phase velocity of a wave, c is the speed of light in a =
=3D
vacuum, and n is the refractive index of the material.  For light, this =
=3D
refractive index is a function of frequency (hence prisms work).  If Er =
=3D
varied with F, wouldn't you get dispersion?

What am I missing?

Hi:

I would like to give a few comments on dispersion:

1. For TEM mode, the wave is propagating in one single medium. If the
permittivity (Er) and the permeability (Mur) are constants, the phase
velocity will be the same at each frequency and it is not a dispersive
system. Coaxial and striplines are such cases if we neglect the loss on =
=3D
the
metallics bounding it.

2. For non-TEM wave, the wave is propagating in more than one medium. On =
=3D
a
typical microstrip or multiple layer structures, the wave can not =3D
propagate
in the horizontal direction (a). If it propagates in horizontal =3D
direction,
the phase of the wave can not match on the surface of the air and the
substrate because the wave propagates at different velocity in the air =
=3D
and
the substrate. The mechanism is much more complicated. However, to =3D
simplify
it for illustration, you can imagine the wave will be bouncing back and
forth inside the substrate between the ground plane and the =3D
air-substrate
surface. The direction of the power transportation is still along the
micrstrip in the horizontal direction. However, it is the final effect =
=3D
of
the bouncing back and forth. At a specific frequency, the angle of the =
=3D
wave
will be fixed in order to form a waveguide mode. Also, the angle of the =
=3D
wave
will be changing with frequency. Therefore, the phase velocity at each
frequency will be different even though the Er and Mur are the same.

(a)
      air
--->  ----
      substrate
     ------------
      ground

(b)
      air
--------------------------
      substrate, \/\/
--------------------------
      grouund plane

3. I saw comments that dispersion is related to loss. This is really not
necessary. For a rectangular waveguide (RWG), theoretically, we can use =
=3D
PEC
to build the rectangular tube. There is no loss involved. However, a RWG =
=3D
is
always dispersive. That is due to the bouncing back and forth angle of =
=3D
the
wave inside the waveguide. RWG is the best example to illustrate how the
wave is propagating inside a dispersive TLN. The wave has to form an =3D
angle
to form a mode in order to propagate in the RWG. It is the same for
microstrip. Those TLNs with one single medium and more than 1 conductor =
=3D
are
exception. Thanks!

Best regards,
