    Abstract: A main symmetrical CPW structure is formed by depositing three parallel films of a conductor on a film of a single crystal ferroelectric material. Cavities are formed by placing irises in a main CPW structure. These cavities are tuned to a dominant resonant frequency. By the application of a bias voltage to the main CPW structure with cavities, the permittivity of the film of the ferroelectric material, underneath the CPW structure, is changed. Thus the dominant resonant frequency of the filter is changed. By changing the level of the bias voltages, different dominant resonant frequencies of the filter are obtained. Thus a tunable band pass filter is obtained. With branch cavities on a CPW structure deposited on a ferroelectric film, a tunable band reject filter is obtained.

    Abstract: A symmetrical coplanar waveguide is formed by a spiral with three arms. One arm is 1, the second arm is 2 and the 3rd arm is 41. The arms 1 and 2, and spiral arms 1 and 41 are separated by equal distance. The spiral arms 1, 2 and 41 are formed by the deposition of films of a conductor, layer 3, on a film 14 of a single crystal ferroelectric material, layer 2, which is deposited on a single crystal dielectric material, layer 1. Input is 10 and the output is 11. The CPW spiral arms 1, 2 and 41 form a time delay device. When a bias voltage V is applied between the spiral arms 1 and 2, and between 1 and 41 through a bias filter made of L and C, the permittivity of the ferroelectric film between the spiral arms 1 and 2, and between 1 and 41 or across the CPW, changes producing a change in the time delay. By the application of different levels of bias voltage between the spiral arms 1 and 2, and between 1 and 41, different permittivity of the ferroelectric material are obtained and thus different changes in the time delay are obtained. Thus a variable time delay is obtained. Other delay embodiments are (1) meander line, (2) square shaped structure, (3) interdigital line, (4) parallel CPW.

    Abstract: The high power band-pass filters are made of sections of circular waveguide resonators with sections of waveguide in between them. In the center of the waveguide resonator a ferroelectric disc, with a hole in the center, is placed. A bias is applied to the inner side of the ferroelectric disc. On the application of a bias voltage, the permittivity of the ferroelectric disc changes. As a result, the resonant frequency of the circular cavity changes. Application of different levels of bias voltages produces different resonant frequencies of the filter. The interior conducting surfaces of the waveguide(s) and the waveguide resonator(s) have high Tc superconducting material and the waveguide flanges have high Tc superconducting material on the conducting surfaces.The band-stop filters are made of a section of a main waveguide with branch waveguide resonator(s) connected on the broad-wall of the main waveguide with waveguide sections in between the resonators. A ferroelectric circular disc, with a hole in the middle, is placed in the middle of the branch guide. The branch waveguide loaded resonator is tuned to the dominant mode resonant frequency. A bias voltage is applied to the inner side of the ferroelectric disc changing the permittivity of the ferroelectric material and consequently changing the resonant frequency of the band reject filter.

    Abstract: The design of a high Tc superconducting band reject tunable ferroelectric filter (TFF) is presented. The band reject TFF consists of a main microstrip line on a dielectric substrate. One or more half wavelength microstrip resonators, on a ferroelectric substrate, is coupled to the main microstrip line. At a resonant frequency of a resonator, a short circuit is presented on the main microstrip line resulting in a rejection of signal of that frequency. By applying a bias voltage to a resonator, the frequency of the resonator and, as such, the reject band of the filter is changed. Different resonators can be tuned to different frequencies.

    Abstract: The design of a high Tc superconducting band pass tunable ferroelectric filter (TFF) is presented. The band pass TFF consists of an edge coupled filter on a ferroelectric substrate. Each input and output microstrip line is a quarter wavelength long. Each intermediate microstrip line is a half wavelength long with the first quarter wavelength being coupled to the preceding microstrip line and the remaining quarter wavelength being coupled to the succeeding microstrip line. Each microstrip line is connected, through an LC filter, to a common bias voltage source. Application of a bias voltage changes the frequency of operation of the filter. For matching the impedances of the input and output of the filter to the impedances of an input and output circuit respectively, matching ferroelectric quarter wavelength transformers are provided.
