Kutuzov, V. ; Kharkovsky, Sergey
Abstract :
High Q-factor whispering gallery modes which are excited in a shielded hemispherical dielectric resonator by an external signal or Gunn diode are investigated. Their application as modes of an oscillator with high frequency stability is proposed. The power of the output signal and frequency tuning of an oscillator based on the investigated resonator are measured.
