Abstract: Resonance holes (2) whose inner surfaces are covered with an inner conductor (3) (or other inner conductor structures) are formed in a dielectric block (1) such that the resonance holes (2) extend between two opposing end faces. The outer surface of the dielectric block (1) is covered with an outer conductor (4). Input/output electrodes (5) are formed out of part of the outer conductor (4) at predetermined locations on the surface of the dielectric block (1). A slot (11) is formed near one end face of the dielectric block (1) so that the inner conductors (3) are separated by the slot (11) into isolated parts. By means of the slot (11), an electrically open end of each resonator is formed at a location spaced inward from the physical end face. Thus it is possible to produce a low-cost high-performance dielectric filter in which an electrically open end is formed with high accuracy at a location spaced inward from the physical end face of a dielectric block.

Abstract: A polishing cloth mounted on a turntable is dressed
by bringing a dresser in contact with the polishing cloth for
restoring polishing capability of the polishing cloth. The
dressing is performed by measuring heights of a surface of the
polishing cloth at radial positions of the polishing cloth in
a radial direction thereof, determining a rotational speed of
the dresser with respect to a rotational speed of the turntable
on the basis of the measured heights, and dressing the
polishing cloth by pressing the dresser against the polishing
cloth while the turntable and the dresser are rotating. The
dresser has an annular diamond grain layer or an annular SiC
layer.
