We have fabricated a 2 GHz 12-pole superconducting microstrip line filter and a 2-pole electrically tunable filter using interdigital electrodes and dielectric film. The change of the dielectric constant of a SrTi03 film, stacked on the filter, by applying a bias voltage between the electrodes leads to the tunability. The range of the center frequency modulation was 13 MHz (0.7 %) at 60 K, 75 kV/cm. The microwave frequency response was improved by modification of the electrode structure. This tuning method is considered to be promising in that individual resonance elements in multi-pole filters can be tuned independently.

Computation was thus carried out for HBTs with various c a t e g o r i e s o f b a s e a n d c o l l e c t o r s t r u c t u r e s .
