Abstract
A new applicator is described which consists of a resonant circuit formed from a current-carrying sheet in the absence of a ground plane and which can be easily matched to a coaxial feeder. Designs for operation at frequencies in a range exceeding 10 to 1000 MHz are possible, and aperture dimensions can be chosen almost independently of frequency.
