Abstract

A resonator package can comprise a microwave container which does not have to be tuned, such as an untuned waveguide, carrying an absorption cell and forming an optical path through its open end and the absorption cell and leading to a light detection means, and a microwave loop adjustably carried by the microwave container between the absorption cell and the light detection means. The microwave loop can be carried by a carrier slidably engaging a slot formed in the waveguide, and can be tuned by adjusting its position with respect to the adjacent face of the absorption cell. The resonator package can thus eliminate a microwave cavity and the need for the precise dimensions of a microwave cavity and the problems of separately tuning a microwave cavity and loop, and can permit smaller resonator assemblies without the use of dielectric loading and the use of a loop that also functions as a very simple and inexpensive microwave multiplier/mixer.
