This paper demonstrates the acoustic resonance of an Independent-Gate (IG) FinFET driven with internal dielectric transduction and sensed by piezoresistive modulation of the drain current through the transistor. An acoustic resonance at 37.1 GHz is obtained with a quality factor of 560, corresponding to an f.Q product of 2.1x10. The demonstrated hybrid NEMS-CMOS technology can provide RF CMOS c...

A three dimensional model of a slotted tube resonator (STR) used as a probe in the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which is loaded by a dielectric body and surrounded by a conducting shield, is analyzed by using the variational method and the dyadic Green's function of a circular waveguide having a dielectric core. Three surface current modes are properly assumed to expand the currents on the...

A low-cost millimeter-wave dielectric-resonator filter using a high-order whispering-gallery mode with the coupling of curved microstrip transmission line has been successfully developed for the mode selection in a millimeter-wave optoelectronic oscillator. The achieved 3-dB bandwidth of this filter is 10.5 MHz (loaded quality factor, Q, is about 3,000) or 0.03 percent at 31.5 GHz with a 3-dB i...

The paper presents a versatile technique of the construction of multivariate models of interresonator couplings. These models are based on results of electromagnetic simulations and can be used for fast synthesis of coupled resonator filters with complex geometry (like combline or dielectric resonators filters). To demonstrate the usefulness of the models, an example of synthesis of filter in t...

We demonstrate a tunable on chip polymer waveguide micro ring resonator (MRR) device. The transmission spectrum and extinction ratio are controlled by electrowetting on dielectric (EWOD), via the application of voltage to a droplet. As a result the droplet covers a portion of the MRR waveguide and changes its effective refractive index. This method can be used for efficiently tuning a variety o...

The external fields of optical whispering gallery modes may be used to confine atoms in stable orbits around a dielectric microsphere. As an example, a toroidal dipole-force trap (atom gallery) for three-level atoms is investigated, and the possibility of achieving an atomic (matter-wave) resonator is discussed. The extremely small electromagnetic mode volumes and high Q's of the whispering gal...
