A new resonator that is fabricated by single polysilicon layer process is presented. The resonator can move in two orthogonal direction on the plane parallel to the substrate. And the resonant frequencies of the two modes are intrinsically designed to be identical since the overall structure of the resonator is symmetric about the two directions of motion. Since the resonator ideally has two identical vibration mode, it can be applied to various micro-devices that requires multi DOF motion, especially to microgyroscopes. To investigate the feasibility of application of the resonator, dynamic model of the resonator including the nonlinear behavior of driving electrodes is derived and evaluated with the fabricated one, and the self-tuning characteristics are proved though experiments.

We have studied about spatial wavefront analysis of a pulsed laser output beam by means of an imaging unstable ring resonator with an infinite Fresnel number. We have constructed a Newtonian telescope type NBUR (Negative Branch Unstable Ring) Nd:YAG laser with 4 plane mirrors. Provided that the NBUR resonator is under self imaging condition, the resonator could be reduced diffraction effects which were occuring to the beam transmitting through the circular aperture of scraper mirror in the resonator. We have observed enhancement in the spatial coherence of wavefronts of laser beam due to the iterative round trips of the self imaging beam inside the ring resonator. The information on the spatial wavefronts was determined by the fringe patterns from Mach-Zehnder interferometer and the fringe analysis by means of the Fourier transform method showed the distortion of wavefronts of less than 0.2), In comparison with a standing wave type resonator, we have confirmed that the spatial coherence of the NBUR Nd:YAG laser output beam was enhanced as much as 75%. s 75%.

The positive branch confocal unstable resonator equipped with an intra-cavity beam splitter has been studied experimentally to achieve low beam divergence in the copper vapor laser. Output laser beams of 0.15 mrad divergence was achieved from the laser system with a 10 cm curvature convex mirror (M=30), and laser beams of 0.1 mrad was achieved for a 5 cm curvature convex mirror (M=60). The power density of the far-field beam from the M=60 resonator laser was 130 times higher than the case of the 2 mrad-operation with the plane-parallel resonator. We also observed the self-mode-locking from the unstable resonator laser pulses.

A novel TEM resonator coil was developed for the imaging of small animals. The functional elements of the TEM resonator were 8 inner conductors, distributed in a cylindrical pattern and connected at the ends with capacitors to the cylindrical outer shield. The TEM resonator coil with cavity elements was robust to the surrounding influences due to the self-shielding structure. The TEM resonator coil with high Q factor could provide high quality MR images at 3.0T MRI system. Also, the TEM resonator coil has an advantage for a fine tune with length adjustment of each cavity elements. Thus, The TEM resonator coil at 3.0T, even higher field could be used in the research studies.

The magnetized helical resonator plasma etcher has been built. Electron density and temperature were measured as functions of rf source power, axial magnetic field, and pressure. The results show electron density increases as the magnetic field increases and reached $2\times1012cm^{-3}$,/TEX>. The oxide etch rate and selectivity to polysilicon were investigated as the above mentioned conditions and self-bias voltage. We can obtain the much improved oxide etch selectivity to polysilicon (60 : 1) by applying the external axial weak magnetic field in magnetized helical resonator plasma etcher.

Switched-resonator converters are a new family of soft switching DC-DC converters where the energy is transferred via a resonator. This paper introduces some isolated topologies of this family. The achieved advantages include, load independent soft-switching, self short-circuit protection, and optimization capability due to topology variety. Compared to conventional series-resonant converters, outstanding advantages such as a smaller fewer number of switches and diodes, a smaller transformer, and lower current stresses are achieved. A general synthesis scheme, functional topologies, and essential relations are included. Experimental results from a laboratory prototype confirm the presented theoretical analysis.

In this paper, a high power tuneable resonator for a wireless power transfer system based on magnetic resonance is proposed. A spiral structure is used for a self-resonant coil and tuneable trimmer capacitors are added at the edges of resonant coils such that the frequency can be easily tuned. 3D simulation tools and equivalent circuit modeling method are used for predicting self-resonant frequency and scattering parameters according to the change of capacitor values. From the measurement of the prototype WPT system, the resonant frequency could be controlled from 3.0 MHz to 4.5 MHz and the transmission efficiency way over 50 % when the distance between transmitting coil and receiving coil was 160 mm.
