Abstract
Measurements of material properties such as loss tangent and surface resistance at microwave frequencies require the accurate determination of the quality factor Q of the resonating structure in which the sample is incorporated. We review various techniques used so far to determine the loaded quality factor Q(L) of microwave resonators. We also present a method developed to accurately obtain Q(L) from measurements of complex transmission coefficients S(21) close to the resonant frequency using fractional linear curve-fitting. Verification of the technique was done using a sapphire rod resonator with YBa2Cu3O7 end-plates.
