摘要:
The present invention provides an electronically tunable resonating apparatus which uses a tunable dielectric material which is biased by an electric field to alter the resonant frequency in a resonating cavity. The electrodes which apply the electric field are connected to a variable voltage source. The electrodes can therefore apply a plurality of electric field strengths and provide a range of resonant frequencies in the resonating apparatus. The resonating apparatus is particularly useful for microwave and millimeterwave electromagnetic energy.

The present invention provides a superconducting device having a weak link junction with an angle at the grain boundary between the two superconductor crystals being variable. The angle at the junction is substantially equivalent to a vicinal angle for the substrate. Accordingly, the magnitude of the angle at the junction can be varied by varying the vicinal angle of the substrate. This result can be realized by using buffer layers of different compositions underlying the superconducting materials on either side of the weak link junction. Weak link junctions and reproducible properties are essential for a variety of electronic and magnetic sensing devices.
