Microwave energy sources based on dielectric resonators
A line of work on monocrystalline dielectric resonators and clean microwave energy sources, developed since the late 1990s in collaboration with laboratories at Moscow State University, Moscow Power Engineering Institute, and Bauman Moscow State Technical University.
DRAFT EN — pending review by Pavel Pivovarov & A. Kushelev
What this is
A research direction on high-power, environmentally clean microwave energy sources based on monocrystalline dielectric resonators. Work was conducted during the 1990s and 2000s in collaboration with laboratories at Moscow State University (MSU), Moscow Power Engineering Institute (MPEI), and Bauman MSTU.
Documented results
- Talk at the 2nd International Aerospace Congress (Moscow, 1999): “Availability of ether energy for space flight” (A. Kushelev, S. Polishchuk).
- Article in Elektronika (2002): “Is ether energy available for space flight?”.
- Abstract at the 4th International Environmental Conference (Moscow, 2000): “Development of environmentally clean microwave energy sources based on dielectric resonators”.
- Talk at the 5th All-Russian Conference (NSTU, Nizhny Novgorod, 2001).
- A 2005–2011 newsletter series (narod.ru) documenting resonator constructions at 2.45, 34, and 50 GHz.
2025 market context
The commercial dielectric-resonator market is growing at double-digit rates, driven by 5G, mmWave, and defence applications. Kyocera × Vishay (March 2025), TDK (June 2025), and Murata (April 2025) all launched new high-Q filter and oscillator products. This creates an opening for re-examining Kushelev’s early work as prior art.
What we are looking for
Reproduction of Q-factor, thermal-stability, and efficiency measurements on independent equipment. Contact with researchers who have access to Keysight or Rohde & Schwarz measurement suites.
What we are looking for
Looking for partners with access to vector network analysers and microwave measurement equipment to reproduce the resonator characteristics at 2.45, 34, and 50 GHz.
