In this paper, we analysed coupling coefficient between dielectric resonator of high dielectric constant and microstrip line to design for low phase noise dielectric resonator by direct coupling. Also we analysed phase noise of dielectric resonance oscillator with parallel feedback circuit to complement Q by high dielectric constant. We obtained a result from high-stability dielectric oscillator which is optimum designed through analysis of dielectric resonance oscillator phase noise and coupling coefficient. The result is that the phase noise was -83.3dBc/Hz@1KHz at 20.25GHz when we used about 3.6 coupling coefficient and ${\epsilon}_r$=30 dielectric resonator of 20.25GHz dielectric resonance oscillator. As a result, we suggested the direct-connect design method by frequency multiplication mode to prevent phase noise loss at K-Band.

본 논문에서는 결합창으로 결합을 구현한 유전체 공진기 필터의 결합창 특성을 해석하였다. 결합창의 특성을 결합계수로 표현하였으며, 간단한 표현식으로 유도하였다. 결합창의 크기를 변화시키면서 해석 방법을 적용하여 결합계수를 계산하였고, 측정결과와 비교하여 해석의 유효성을 증명하였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 방법은 적용이 간단할 뿐 아니라, 결합창의 제작 및 측정오차 범위에서 정확한 결과를 보였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 방법은 유전체 공진기 필터의 설계 및 유전체 공진기와 Varactor diode로 이루어지는 동조필터가 동조주파수 대역에서 일정한 통과대역폭을 가지기 위한 최적화된 결합창의 설계적용이 가능하다.

A PLDRO(Phase Locked Dielectric Resonator Oscillator) in Ku-band(10.95-11.70GHz) is designed with the concept of the feedback property of PLL(Phase Locked Loop). A series feedback type DRO is developed, and VCDRO(Voltage Controlled Dielectric Resonator Oscillator) using a varactor diode as a voltage-variable capacitor is implemented to tune oscillating frequency electrically. Then, PLDRO is designed by using a SPD(Sampling Phase Detector). This PLDRO is phase-locked voltage controlled DRO to reference source(VHF band) by SPD at 10.00 GHz for European FSS(Fixed Satellite Service). The PLDRO generates output power greater than 10dBm at 10.00 GHz and has phase noise of -80 dBc/Hz at 10 KHz offset from carrier. This PLDRO achieves much better frequency stability than conventional VCDRO.

이 발표에서 우리는 수백 나노미터 크기인 두 개의 나노 금속 원반 또는 나노 블록이 백 나노미터 이하의 간격으로 결합된 초미세 이중 금속 플라즈몬 광공진기를 제안하고 그 응용을 살펴본다. 원반구조 경우, 반지름이 476 nm인 나노원반 두 개가 100 nm 두께의 유전체 원반의 양쪽에 위치하여 1550 nm 공진파장을 가진 표면 플라즈몬 whispering-gallery-mode (WGM)을 유전체 내에 형성한다. 유전체의 두께를 일정하게 유지할 경우, WGM의 공진파장은 원반의 반지름에 따라 줄어든다. 반면, 반지름이 일정할 때에는 두 금속 원반 사이의 유전체 두께가 줄어듦에 따라 두 금속 원반 사이에 작용하는 표면 플라즈몬의 결합이 강해져서 공진파장이 길어진다. 따라서, 일반적으로 공진기의 크기가 줄어듦에 따라 공진파장이 짧아지는 것과 달리, 제안된 원반구조에서 발생하는 WGM는 원반의 반지름과 유전체의 두께를 함께 줄여도 공진파장이 동일하게 유지되는 차별화된 특성을 가지고 있다. 최종적으로 같은 공진파장을 가지는 WGM를 반지름 88 m, 유전체 두께 10 nm의 공진기에서도 여기시킬 수 있음으로, 모드부피(V)를 1/160으로 줄일 수 있다. 이에 비해, 공진모드의 품위값(Q)은 증가된 금속의 흡수손실에 의해 1/3정도 줄어듦으로써, 공진기와 물질의 상호작용 정도를 보여주는 Q/V값은 크기가 줄어든 공진기에서 오히려 50배 가량 증가함을 확인할 수 있다. 이 같은 초미세 플라즈몬 공진기는 매우 작은 굴절율 센서로서 응용을 가지고 있으며, 1160 nm/(단위 굴절율 변화)의 높은 민감도를 보인다. 한편, $200{\times}150{\times}100nm3$의 크기를 가진 두 개의 금속 나노블록이 10 nm의 공기 간격을 가지고 결합된 나노 공진기는, 공기 간격 내에 강하게 집적된 838 nm의 공진파장을 가진 플라즈몬 공진기 모드를 여기시킨다. 제안된 공진모드는 공기간격이 줄어듦에 따라 공진파장이 급격하게 증가하는 특성을 가지므로 옹스토롬 정도의 분해능을 가진 두께 변화 센서로 응용할 수 있다. 예를 들어, 공기간격 2 nm에서는 1A 두께 변화에 대해 공진파장 변화는 약 40 nm로 매우 민감하게 변화한다.

In this paper a novel dielectric resonator (DR) bandpass filter (BPF) with flexible arrangement of attenuation poles is proposed. This DR filter is similar to a conventional DR filter except adding a microstrip line below a DR, which not only shifts the location of attenuation poles, but also improves skirt characteristics. The duplexer with the proposed DR BPF has been yielded better isolation and sharper skirt behavior than that with a conventional DR filter. The implemented duplexer has shown a good performance and been well agreed with the simulation.

In this paper, we present an ultra miniaturized voltage tuned oscillator, with HMIC-type amplifier and phase shifter, using LTCC artificial dielectric resonator. ADR which consists of periodic conductor patterns and stacked layers has a smaller size than a dielectric resonator. The design specification of ADR is obtained from the design goal of oscillator. The structure of the ADR with a stacked circular disk type is chosen. The resonance characteristic, physical dimension and stack number are analyzed. For miniaturization of ADRO, the ADR is internally implemented at the upper part of the LTCC substrate and the other circuits, which are amplifier and phase shifter are integrated at the bottom side respectively. The fabricated ADRO has ultra small size of $13{\times}13{\times}3mm^3$ and is a SMT type. The designed ADRO satisfies the open-loop oscillation condition at the design frequency. As a results, the oscillation frequency range is 2.025~2.108 GHz at a tuning voltage of 0~5 V. The phase noise is $-109{\pm}4$ dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset frequency and the power is $6.8{\pm}0.2$ dBm. The power frequency tuning normalized figure of merit is -30.88 dB.

A new low phase noise Dielectric Resonator Parallel Feedback Oscillator(DRPFO) that is proposed in this paper has a simple structure so that it can be fabricated in low cost and with high performance. The proposed DRPFO is in a feedback loop oscillator configuration, which is composed of a low noise amplifier, a power amplifier, a power attenuator, a power divider and a parallel resonator feedback element that consists of a dielectric resonator coupled with two microstrip lines. The measured phase noise of DRPFO was less than -81 dBc/Hz at offset frequency 1 kHz of 10.75 GHz carrier frequency, and the frequency stability of DRPFO was less than $\pm$200 kHz over the temperature range of -40$^{\circ}$C to +60$^{\circ}$C.

In this paper, a new coupled resonator which expands free spectral ranges (FSR) of the W. G. mode resonators is presented. The proposed coupled resonator consists of two dielectric disks. The resonance frequency of the coupled resonator is equivalent to the frequency, which satisfies the individual resonance conditions of each disk at the same time. As the results, the FSR is expanded. The coupled resonator proposed in this paper at K-Band is fabricated by using dielectric disks and the dielectric straight waveguides. The validity of proposed coupled resonator was verified through experiments.

In this paper, dielectric slab loaded cylindrical cavity resonator measurement technique is presented to determine the dielectric constant of a dielectric material. The dielectric constant is measured by the resonant frequency deviation of empty and dielectric slab loaded cavity. Characteristic equations are derived by th exact field analysis. The measurement configurations are formed using HP8719A vector network analyzer and an experimental cylindrical metallic cavity with circular cross-section. The validity of the theory is confirmed by experiments and CST MWS 4.0(3D simulator). The results were in the whole satisfactory. The measured dielectric constant of teflon and bakelite are 2.03 and 4.44, respectively.
