Abstract

See full text

Embodiments of the invention provide a resonant circuit including an active material substrate excitable by photon energy. A busline having a single input and a single output is located on the active material substrate. A RF resonator geometry is located on the active material substrate in electrical communication with the busline. Application of photon energy to the active material substrate changes the resonance of the RF resonator geometry at room temperatures. Alternately, a resonant circuit is provided that include a passive material substrate. An active material thin film is located on the passive material substrate. A busline having a single input and a single output and a RF resonator geometry located on the active material thin film. The RF resonator geometry is in electrical communication with the busline. Application of photon energy to the active material thin film changes the resonance of the RF resonator geometry at room temperatures.
