Improved loop-gap resonators applicable to Electron-Spin Resonance spectroscopy and to quantum computing employ interdigitated capacitor structures to dramatically increase the capacitance of the resonator, along with corresponding decreases in loop size to enable measurements of small-volume samples or individual quantum bits (qubits). The interdigitated-capacitor structures are designed to minimize parasitic inductance.
