Possible Reason for Resonance Shift in Thin Sample Thin sample Bulk
Lagarkov’s and Sarychev’s Theory: - Resonance shift depends on powder size, fibre length and thickness - Powders are assumed to be spherical and non-magnetic d = host permittivity e = effective permittivity (Lagarkov and Sarychev 1996) 2a 2b (Lagarkov, et al 1998)
