400-nm-thick Ba0.3Sr0.7TiO3 thin films are deposited on high resistivity silicon by in situ radio frequency magnetron sputtering. Coplanar waveguides with 1 μm slot width are designed, with accurate knowledge frequency losses behavior, to determine ferroelectric thin-films properties up to 60 GHz. Permittivity, loss tangent, and tunability are extracted through measurements and home made finite element analysis. Tunability of 33% and 29%, with 30 V maximum applied voltage (electric field of 300 kV/cm), are measured at 5 GHz and 60 GHz, respectively, while the dielectric losses evolve from 0.5% to 5%. A brief highlight is proposed about tunable silicon integrated quarter wavelength transformer potentialities for impedance matching.
