Microwave metrology for the thickness of metallic or superconductive films provides a new way to measure the film thickness in a non-invasive way by using microwave resonators, with the measurement accuracy affected by standard uncertainties in the resonator quality factor, temperature-dependent resonant frequency and the dimensions of the resonators. Here we study effects of the standard uncertainty in the thickness, $t_{cal}$, of a calibration $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$ (YBCO) film on the measured thicknesses, $t_{RF}$, by using a ~ 40 GHz microwave resonator. For the study, we used five YBCO films having the thicknesses of 70 - 360 nm, for which relative standard uncertainties in $t_{RF}$ due to that in $t_{cal}$ are obtained. The standard uncertainty in $t_{cal}$ was determined with the surface roughness of the film taken into account. It appeared that relative standard uncertainty in $t_{cal}$ significantly affects the $t_{RF}$ values, with the values of 1% (5%) in the former resulting in those of 1-2% (5-9%) for the latter at 10 K. Our results show that, for realizing relative standard uncertainties less than 5% in $t_{RF}$ for all the YBCO films, the surface roughness of the calibration films should be small enough to realize a relative standard uncertainty of less than 2.7% in $t_{cal}$.

The resonance frequency of the slot-line resonator in the shielding box is analyzed. It is verified experimentally that an X-Band oscillator may be realized by the resonator in the microstrip circuit mount as a shielding cavity, and by shunt-connecting the IMPACT diode on the slot-line, And the oscillating power can be coupled with the microstrip by the coupling aperure on the opposite surface of the microstrip by the coupling aperure on the opposite of the substrate of the microstrip cirsuit.

Film bulk acoustic resonator used in microwave region can be analyzed by one-dimension Mason's model and one-dimensional numerical method, but it had several constraints to analyze effects of area variation, electrode-area variation, electrode-shape variation and spurious characteristics. To overcome these constraints film bulk acoustic resonator must be analysed by three dimensional numerical method. So, in this paper three dimensional finite element method was used to analyze several moles of resonance and was compared with the one dimension Mason's model analysis and analytic solution.

In this paper, the technique of analysis and optimization on the Passive intermodulation(PIM) in a filter using coaxial transmission resonator, is presented. The developed simulation technique can reduce PIM power without the degradation of the linear filter response, through the variation of filter dimensions. The increase of PIM in filter is depended on currents flowing through each resonator forming filter. The reduction of these currents therefore makes the reduction of PIM power.

We investigated a double ring resonator(DRR)device to improve the resonating Q value of a superconductor resonator. To make a DRR device, we made a large area YBCO film on a MgO substrate by pulsed laser deposition(PLD). Thetransition temperature was 88 K and the film was uniformly deposited. We also deposited 500$\AA$SrTiO$_{3}$on the YBCO thin film to protect the superconducting properties from degradation. The loaded Q value was measured as 50000 from simulation and as 2000 from experiment near 10GHz at 77K.

In this paper, a new technique to reduce the phase noise in microwave oscillators is proposed using the resonant characteristics of the Photonic Bandgap(PBG). Microstrip line resonator has the low Q(Qaulity factor). Therefore, as PBG structure was applied, we examined that the phase noise of the oscillator has been reduced.

In this paper, A X-band voltage-controlled hair-pin resonator oscillator(VCHRO) is able to a local oscillator or a signal source in transmitter/receiver of a microwave communication system for mobile radar, is designed and fabricated In order to apply mobile radar system is used the hair-pin resonator stronger on shock or vibration than the dielectric resonator, and also, in order to improvement the phase noise and output power is used a system of serial feedback format A hair-pin resonator was simulated by momentum method of HP ADS and then a oscillator circuit was designed that operates at 10.525 GHz by nonlinear method in harmonic balance simulation. The HRO generated output power of 6.93 dBm at 10.525 GHz, phase noise of -57.74 dBc at 100 kHz offset from carrier and the 2'nd harmonic was suppressed -23.90 dBc.

In this paper, an X-band TDRO(transistor dielectric resonator oscillator) is designed and experimented with the oscillator constructed. Design of the TDRO is carried out by deriving analycally the coupling parameters between a microstrip line and a dielectric resonator. The coupling parameters take account of the relations among substrate material, ground plane, metallic boundaries surrounding the resonator, distance between a microstrip line and a resonator. Two criteria, external quality factor and coupling coefficient, have been chosen in order to evaluate the performance of the TDRO designed. TDRO studed in this paper may be useful for the application of a microwave system requiring a stable and effective oscillator frequency.
