摘要:
A hermetic terminal for an active implantable medical device (AIMD), includes an RF distance telemetry pin antenna, a capacitor conductively coupled between the antenna and a ground for the AIMD, and an inductor electrically disposed in parallel with the capacitor and conductively coupled between the antenna and a ground for the AIMD. The capacitor and the inductor form a band pass filter for attenuating electromagnetic signals through the antenna except at a selected frequency band. Values of capacitance and inductance are selected such that the band pass filter is resonant at the selected frequency band.

Novel structures and methods for forming useful high temperature superconducting devices, most particularly resonators, are provided. Structures resulting in reduced peak current densities relative to known structures achieve numerous desirable benefits, especially including the reduced intermodulation effects of earlier resonators. In one aspect of this invention, a spiral in, spiral out resonator is provided, characterized in that it has an odd number of long runs, at least equal to five long runs, where the long runs are connected by turns, and wherein there are at least two sequential turns of the same handedness, followed by at least two turns of the opposite handedness. In yet another aspect of this invention, it has been discovered that reducing the size of the input and output pads of HTS resonators increases the relative inductance compared to the capacitance. Yet another resonator structure is a spiral snake resonator having a terminal end disposed within the resonator. A wide in the middle structure and wide at peak current density resonator structures utilize enlarged width portions of the resonator in those areas where current density is largest. In yet another aspect of this invention, operation of resonators in high modes, above the fumdamental mode, reduce peak current densities. Resonators operated in modes in which current in adjacent long runs are in the same direction further serve to reduce current densities, and intermodulation effects. Symmetric current structures and modes of operation are particularly advantageous where far field effects are compensated for.

Lumped element electrical components, such as inductors and capacitors, are formed to include high temperature superconducting materials. In the preferred embodiment, thin film epitaxial high temperature superconductors are patterned to form capacitors and inductors on low loss substrates. Preferably, a ground plane is formed on the back side of the substrate, most preferably being formed of high temperature superconducting material, or other highly conductive materials such as gold or copper. Various advantageous structures include a planar spiral structure, a zig-zag serpentine structure, a single coil structure and a double coil structure. Single layer and multilayer structures are included. Improved narrow bandpass filters, bandreject filters and high Q resonator structures are formed. Chebyshev bandpass filters are formed from multiple series connected zig-zag filter structures. Chebyshev, elliptic and quasi-elliptic bandreject filters are formed from a plurality of bandreject structures, each of which includes a zig-zag or serpentine inductor. A quasi-elliptic bandpass filter utilizes a plurality of series connected bandpass structures with planar cross-coupling of bandpass structures.

A flat group-delay low-pass filter includes a series element connected between an input terminal and an output terminal, and a shunt element with one end thereof grounded. Inductors define the series element, a parallel circuit including a capacitor and a series circuit including a resistor and a capacitor defines the shunt element. The flat group-delay low-pass filter thus eliminates the need for inserting a fixed attenuator to control the effect of reflections due to impedance mismatching between the filter and other components. The resulting flat group-delay low-pass filter and an optical signal receiver including the filter have very low manufacturing costs and component costs.

According to the invention, the capacitor elements are initially provided and being subjected to a sintering at a relatively high temperature, whereafter the inductor elements (6,7,8) are applied and a sintering is performed at a considerably low temperature. In this manner undesired reactions are avoided between the two zones.
