Design and Simulation of Circular Dielectric Resonator Antenna and Investigation of Structure, Microstructure, and Dielectric Properties of Mn‐Modified Sr₂SnO₄

Samples with compositions of Sr 2 Sn 1− x Mn x O 4 (SSM) with 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.10 are prepared by conventional ceramic route via heat treatment at 1350 °C. Phase and crystal structure analysis is studied using X‐ray diffraction and Rietveld refinement to confirm the crystallization of samples in the tetragonal structure under space group I4/mmm. The size‐strain plot method is employed to identify the role of Mn on crystallite size/microstrain/dislocation density. The scanning electron microscope and energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy analysis confirm a significant change in the grain size and compositional homogeneity of all samples with Mn‐doping. Dielectric properties of samples are explained in terms of interfacial and orientation polarization of dipoles . Modulus studies show the exclusion of electrode contribution from the electrical properties. The single‐segment circular dielectric resonator antenna is designed with the help of experimental dielectric parameters and showed two major resonant frequencies at 3.6 and 6.7 GHz. The reduction in the S11 parameter and −10 dB reflection coefficient bandwidth with Mn‐doping observed due to overlapping of the E‐field line suggests the application in patch array antenna for radar and satellite communication applications. This study also enables to explore Sr 2 SnO 4 ‐based Ruddlesden Popper oxide for antenna and mm‐wave communication applications.
