Abstract
A conductive film is provided on a dielectric substrate. The conductive film has conductor opening portions, which serve as inductive regions, and a conductor opening portion, which serves as a capacitive region. Multi-step ring resonator elements, each including a conductor line aggregate, are provided on respective substrates to configure resonator elements. The resonator elements are mounted above the conductor opening portions that serve as the inductive regions. This arrangement provides a resonator having a high Qo.

1-11. (canceled)
A resonator comprising:
- a multilayer substrate including a plurality of alternately stacked dielectric layers and conductor layers, the multilayer substrate having conductor opening portions arranged in a stacking direction of the dielectric layers and the conductor layers, the conductor opening portions forming at least two inductive regions, and at least one portion where the conductor layers face each other in the stacking direction with the corresponding dielectric layers interposed therebetween, the at least one portion serving as a capacitive region and interconnecting the at least two inductive regions.
