Frequency-selective Power Transducers “Hexagonal Ferrite Resonator—Semiconductor Element”
نویسنده
چکیده
The transducers studied herein allow for frequency-selective measurement of mm-wave power parameters. Frequency selectivity is assured by a monocrystalline hexagonal ferrite resonator (HFR). The HFR is in direct contact with a semiconductor element (SE)—an unpackaged Hall-element, or a chip transistor (or diode). Power absorbed by the HFR at the ferromagnetic resonance converts to heat, and the heat flux penetrates through the current-carrying SE. A number of thermo/electro/magnetic phenomena accompany the Hall-effect in a semiconductor and cause a voltage in addition to the Hall-effect voltage. The conversion coefficient of a transducer is analyzed using the power balance equation. Some experimental results using the designed power transducers in the 8-mm waveband are presented.

Modulation of mm waves with RF signals can be accomplished using stable non-linear resonance effects in monocrystalline hexagonal ferrite resonators (HFR), characterized by high crystallographic anisotropy. Acoustic oscillations excited in a piezoelectric slab having a good contact with the HFR can be used to control the HFR ferromagnetic resonance frequency. The design ideas of a modulator bas...

The complete phononic band gap (PnBG) of a phononic crystal (PnC) slab is used to efficiently and simultaneously confine both flexural and extensional (longitudinal) elastic vibrations in a resonator. The PnC structure is fabricated by etching a hexagonal (honeycomb) array of air holes in a silicon (Si) slab. Flexural and extensional acoustic modes in the structure are directly excited by a pie...

Theoretical estimates of phase shifter performance as a function of material parameters are presented by examining the results obtained from the small perturbation model used by Button and Lax and from the fully ierrite loaded, parallel plane waveguide model used by Suhl «And Walker. The extension of Suhi's theory on nonlinear effects at high power by Fletcher and Silence is applied to relate t...
متن کاملMicrowave and MM-wave magnetoelectric interactions in ferrite-ferroelectric bilayers
Measurements of the strength of magnetoelectric (ME) interactions at microwave and millimeterwave frequencies have been carried out on layered ferrite-piezoelectric oxides. An electric field E applied to the composite produces a mechanical deformation, resulting in a field shift δHE or a frequency shift δfE in the resonance. A stripline structure or a cavity resonator was used. The strength of ...
