Abstract:
An elementary electrical resonator comprising:a ribbon conductor forming a flat loop with at least one turn, in which the ends of said ribbon conductor form two parallel segments; a first conducting bridge forming an arch straddling said parallel segments of said ribbon conductor in which opposing surfaces of the arch and of said parallel segments forms a capacitor, and in which a part of the first conducting bridge is capable of being displaced with respect to said parallel segments under the action of a control signal so as to cause the capacitance of said capacitor, and therefore the tuning frequency of said resonator to vary; a track parallel to the two parallel segments forming the ends of the flat loop; and a second conducting bridge also forming a variable capacitor, said second bridge straddling said track and one of said two parallel segments forming the ends of the flat loop.
