Abstract
A new applicator is described consisting of a resonant circuit formed from a current carrying sheet in the absence of a ground plane and which can be easily matched to a coaxial feeder. Designs for operation at frequencies in a range 10 to 1000 MHz are possible and aperture dimensions can be chosen almost independently of frequency.
