  • Abstract
    This article deals with a new generation of tunable microwave devices using ferromagnetic materials. The sensitivity of the device cut-off frequency to the dc magnetic field was investigated for two filtering resonators (stub resonator and Stepped Impedance Resonator). The stub resonator exhibited a frequency tunability of nearly 40% for a dc magnetic field strength of 250 Oe, whereas the linewidth remained unchanged. A 12.2% tunability of the SIR device was reached under 250 Oe applied.
