Abstract: A dielectric heat-radiator of a thin plate form is pressed against one side of a dielectric resonator and a dielectric support is bonded to an opposite side of the dielectric resonator. The heat-radiator is supported elastically with nuts and springs by support columns each fixed at one end to a metal baseplate. The resonant frequency is adjusted by processing the electromagnetic energy transmitted through the dielectric heat-radiator. In consequence, heat generated in the dielectric resonator, upon having a high-power high-frequency signal applied thereto, is allowed to propagate efficiently to the dielectric heat-radiator having a high heat conductivity through the wide contact surface between the dielectric resonator and the heat-radiator.
