A sensor array concept has been developed using microstrip-line-excited split-ring resonators (SRRs). With this structure it is possible to spatially resolve the dielectric properties of a Material Under Test (MUT). The SRRs are designed to have different resonant frequencies and are decoupled from each other to indicate the dielectric properties of the MUT and its location within the array. Several prototype sensors have been realized and tested to prove the concept.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
