| Research Abstract |
The research on a novel principle utilizing the change of 80 in the permittivity in a capacitor with pure water is objective in this research. During the research, 0.1 nL water droplet could be transported in a 10 um gap. By using this varibale capacitor, a band elimination filter (BEF) for the operation of 1-6 GHz was fabricated. Note that it was indicated that water droplet in a 10 um gap could be transported, variable capacitor with water could be operated in 10 GHz, and the result could be adopted to a real filter by the success in the varibale BEF.
