Yttrium iron garnet thick film inclusion for enhanced microstrip patch antenna performance
The present investigation deals with the fabrication of silver (Ag) patch antenna with yttrium iron garnet (YIG) thick film layer inclusion as substrate overlay to enhance its performance. In this paper, YIG nanopowder was mixed with organic vehicle which consists of linseed oil, m-xylene and α-terp...
