Abstract: Embedded, coupled, shaped waveguide resonators having conductive walls sandwiched between two fired green tape stacks, said conductive walls having apertures therein whose size and location determine the degree of coupling. These waveguides are made by forming openings in a first green tape stack, defining walls and apertures therein, mounting a second green tape stack having a conductive layer thereon thereover and firing the assembly. E-plane probes are inserted in openings in the second green tape stack and connected to microstrip transmission lines on an external surface pf this green tape stack.

Abstract: An electron gun as for a cathode ray tube includes a plurality of electrodes biased at different potentials to electrostatically shape and focus the one or more electron beams produced thereby. A dynamic focus grid is driven by a substantial ac voltage signal at the horizontal line rate, which signal is undesirably coupled through parasitic capacitance to an intermediate grid located between the dynamic focus grid and the gun anode. A resistive biasing network includes a high value resistance to divide the anode potential to develop bias potential for the intermediate grid and a capacitance to ac couple the intermediate grid to ground potential. The resistance is formed in a single layer ceramic circuit and the capacitance is formed on the single layer ceramic circuit or on the tube neck. The ceramic circuit may be located in the tube neck on or with the electron gun.

Abstract: An array antenna includes a first ceramic layer and a second ceramic layer. A metal layer is disposed between the first and second ceramic layers. A plurality of radiating elements are mounted on the first ceramic layer, and a plurality of control circuits are mounted on the second ceramic layer. The control circuits are coupled to the radiating elements through a plurality of conductive vias which feed through the metal layer. The array antenna may also include a switch having a plurality of poles formed in the second ceramic layer and coupled to one of the radiating elements through one or more conductive vias. A plurality of phase delay elements may be coupled at a first end to a signal source and coupled at a second end to the respective plurality of poles of the switch to provide phase-delayed signals. A waveguide may also be formed within the ceramic layers. Conductive vias or coaxial transmission lines may be used to connect elements within the array antenna.
