Abstract
A device comprises a loop gap resonator having opposing sides and a central opening therethrough; and at least one exciter board positioned over, and at a preselected distance from, at least one of the opposing sides of the loop gap resonator. The exciter board includes at least one metallized layer and a central hole therethrough. The exciter board has one or more cutouts with respect to the central hole that define a geometric configuration, such that a first portion of the metallized layer borders with the central hole at a first distance from a center point of the central hole. A second portion of the metallized layer borders the one or more cutouts at a second distance from the center point that is greater than the first distance. The exciter board is configured to shift a resonant frequency of the loop gap resonator to match a predetermined resonant frequency.
