Abstract :
During the last time open dielectric resonators (DR) excited on whispering-gallery type waves due to their high Q-factor on the higher modes are used to investigate the dielectric properties of not only solid substances but also of liquids. For these purposes in the first experiments DR (which was used as measuring cell) being immersed directly in tested liquid. The investigated liquid influenced on external caustic of DR that led to frequency sift and changes of resonator Q factor. New achievement in creation of the dielectrometer measuring cells have appeared after the creation of the resonant structures in which certain geometrical parts of resonators are used. At first, such DR were created with metal mirrors. The subsequent researches have shown that oscillations exist also without a mirror, which itself leads to condensate of a spectrum and reduction of the quality of resonator.
