A novel micro-solenoid resonator has been designed, simulated, and measured. The solenoid core consisted of a DuroidTM circuit board with a relative permittivity of 2.2. The resonator design incorporated four embedded copper vias with a radius of 125 µm and three surface conductors to form a rectangular coil. A pitch size of 250 µm was used for a 3.02 mm thick substrate. To enhance the resonator’s performance at higher frequencies, a capacitance was introduced in series through the via. This additional capacitor effectively couples the inductance, resistance, and stray capacitance. The optimization of the quality factor was investigated through pole transfer analysis, resulting in an increased resonance frequency of 12.25 GHz and an elevated Q-factor of 306. Moreover, besides its very high Q-factor, this resonator offers a simplified design and easy integration. An analytical lumped circuit model was employed to investigate the design, and the measured S-parameters closely matched the analytical model and electromagnetic simulation results. The tuned resonator exhibited a superior quality factor compared to other micro-resonators. |
