  • Dual-mode microwave resonator device and method of electron spin resonance measurement
    Patent number: 9287606
    Abstract: A microwave resonator device (1), being configured in particular for electron spin resonance measurements, comprises a resonator being resonant with first and second microwave field modes and including first and second resonance sections (7, 8) arranged along a longitudinal axis (2) of the resonator, and a coupling unit being arranged between the first and second resonance sections, wherein the coupling unit includes a conducting plate (16) being arranged on the longitudinal axis (2) and covering a central portion of a cross-sectional area of the resonator, the conducting plate (16) is adapted to adjust a first mode frequency of the first microwave field mode, and the conducting plate (16) is arranged at a field minimum of the second microwave field mode. Furthermore, a method of conducting an electron spin resonance measurement with a sample to be investigated is described.
