Resonator

Definitions: Resonator

Resonator

Noun

1. A hollow chamber whose dimensions allow the resonant oscillation of electromagnetic or acoustic waves.

2. An electrical circuit that combines capacitance and inductance in such a way that a periodic electric oscillation will reach maximum amplitude.

3. Any system that resonates.

Date "resonator" was first used in popular English literature: sometime before 1871. (references)

Specialty Definitions: Resonator

Domain	Definitions
Aerospace	In radio and radar applications, a circuit which will resonate at a given frequency, or over a range of frequencies, when properly excited.A very important type of resonator is the cavity resonator, a closed hollow volume having conducting walls. The frequency at which these cavities will resonate is a function of their volume and shape; thus, they are used for making accurate frequency comparisons and for generating radio frequencies, usually in the microwave region. (references)
Chemistry	A vacuum chamber that contains the laser gas, optics, blowers and electrodes and generated the laser beam. Source: European Union. (references)
Electrical Engineering	Any device exhibiting a sharply defined electric, mechanical or acoustic resonance effect, e. g. a stub, piezoelectric crystal, or Helmholtz resonator. Source: European Union. (references)
Medicine	The absorption is obtained as a result of the tiny slug of air in the neck of the opening being forced to oscillate at a frequency determined by the size of the opening and the volume of the enclosed cavity. Source: European Union. (references)
