High Quality Factor MEMS Tunable Resonators and Filters
- Summary
- Purdue University researchers have developed a tunable microwave resonator that can be used with devices with fast switching time. These resonators achieve high-unloaded quality factor using a substrate biasing technique, which facilitates high-energy density and mitigates power loss. This technology addresses challenges related to simultaneously achieving fast switching time and high-unloaded quality factor.

- *Abstract
-
- *Background
- A resonator is a device that oscillates with greater amplitude at certain frequencies. These devices are used to generate waves of a specific frequency. Resonators are typically characterized by resonant frequency and a quality factor. One parameter is the unload quality factor of the resonator.
