Abstract:
1. A sensor-based surface wave component structure ( 2 ) comprising a housing with a support plate ( 4 ) consisting of a modified conductor plate supporting a frame ( 8 ) connected to the conductor plate ( 4 ) in a gas-tight manner, at least one surface wave component ( 5 ) disposed on the support plate ( 4 ), said support plate ( 4 ) including a fluid channel, and carrying conductors for the passage of high frequency signals, coupling capacitors disposed on the support plate ( 4 ) and on the surface wave component ( 5 ), and having capacitive coupling areas ( 3 a , 3 b ) disposed opposite one another on the surface wave component ( 5 ) and, respectively, on the support plate ( 4 ), said conductors being connected to the coupling areas ( 3 a , 3 b ) for the transmission of high frequency signals to, and from, the at least one surface wave components ( 5 ).
