A voltage controlled oscillator having low phase noise and including: a variable resonator including a varactor and a control voltage terminal; and an open-end stub connected in parallel to the variable resonator, the open-end stub having a length shorter than or equal to an odd multiple of one quarter of a wavelength of a harmonic signal plus one sixteenth of the wavelength of the harmonic signal, and longer than or equal to an odd multiple of one quarter of the wavelength of the harmonic signal minus one sixteenth of the wavelength of the harmonic signal. In this structure, a high Q value is realized for a fundamental wave frequency. Fluctuation in a control voltage due to a harmonic signal is controlled.

In making an airbridge structure, a second resist layer is applied over a first resist layer. The resist layers are exposed and developed to have a predetermined width W2. A third resist layer is applied. The third resist layer is also exposed and developed to have a predetermined width W3. An airbridge-forming material layer is applied to the layer stack structure consisting of the first, second, and third resist layers, forming an airbridge. The resist layers are removed, completing the manufacture of the airbridge, which has a stepped cross section.
