Abstract
Polymer films are widely used in electronic packaging applications due to their low dielectric constant and ease of fabrication. These films often exhibit anisotropic electrical and thermomechanical properties, due to orientation of polymer chains, which need to be evaluated for performance and reliability modeling of electronic packages. This article presents a dualβcapacitor technique to measure the anisotropic dielectric permittivities of such films. Results are reported for in situ measurements for several spinβcoated polymeric films, some of which exhibit different permittivities in the inβplane (x and y) and the throughβplane (z) directions (transversely isotropic), and freeβstanding liquid crystalline Vectran films which exhibit orthotropic permittivities.

The average size of the silver nanoparticles, prepared by the method of Korgel and co-workers [10], is approximately 5 nm. A solution containing 0.3 g of toluene and 0.5 mg of PS, with approximate molecular weight of 900 000, was then added to 0.5 mg of these silver nanocrystals in a vial. The corre
## SYNOPSIS The synthesis, characterization, thermal, and dielectric properties of three different zwitterionic methacrylates of the sulfobetaine type are presented. Diethylamine-ethyl-, 2-(diethylaminoethoxy)-ethyl-, and 2-(2-diethylaminoethoxy) ethoxy)-ethyl-methacrylates were made to react with
Uniform films occupying ~5 cm 5 cm were prepared by depositing 1000 lL of solution on a glass substrate. The solution was confined by inert sidewalls and allowed to dry. Films with thicknesses ranging from 1Β±3 lm were fabricated. Atomic force microscopy revealed a surface roughness of 4 nm over a 1
