Abstract
A resonator, in particular a high-frequency resonator, includes a resonator housing with a resonator space formed therein and a container with a cavity in which a liquid crystal is accommodated, wherein the container is at least partially arranged in the resonator space and includes an electrode configuration for generating an electric control field for controlling the permittivity of the liquid crystal.
Claims20
A resonator comprising:
- a resonator housing, in which a resonator space is formed;
- a container with a cavity, in which a liquid crystal is accommodated, wherein the container is at least partially arranged in the resonator space,
- wherein the container comprises an electrode configuration for generating an electric control field in order to control the permittivity of the liquid crystal.
A filter, wherein the filter comprises:
- a multitude of resonators;
- wherein at least one of the multitude of resonators is a high-frequency resonator and comprises:
- a resonator housing, in which a resonator space is formed;
- and
- a container with a cavity, in which a liquid crystal is accommodated, wherein the container is at least partially arranged in the resonator space,
- wherein the container comprises an electrode configuration for generating an electric control field to control the permittivity of the liquid crystal.
