ARRANGEMENT FOR PRODUCING AN ELECTRIC FIELD AND SENSOR DEVICE INCLUDING SAME
First Claim
1. Circuit arrangement comprising:
- a field generating electrode device which is incorporated into an LC-network and which is exposed toward a field space in such a manner that the capacitance of a condenser system which includes said field generating electrode varies in response of the dielectric properties of material present within said field space,an insulator layer extending on a rear side of said field generating electrode device, and facing away from said field space,a shield electrode device extending on a rear side of said insulating layer and facing away from said field space, anda field extinction electrode device which comprises an electrode area facing toward an extinction area, wherein said the field generating electrode device and the field extinction electrode device are arranged in such a manner and subjected to electric voltage that the field space and the extinction space partially overlap each other.

Abstract
The invention relates to an arrangement for producing an electric field which is markedly influenced in relation to the spatial expansion thereof, and to a sensor device which comprises the same. The aim of the invention is to provide solutions which make it possible to generate a quasi-static electric alternating field which expands in a precise manner in regard to focusing in a relevant preferential area embodied as a monitoring and signal transmission area. Said aim is achieved by means of a circuit arrangement comprising a field producing electrode device which is connected as such in an LC network and which is exposed to a spatial area of the field in such a manner that the capacity of the capacitor system comprising the electrode device alters in accordance with the dielectric properties of the material present in the spatial area of the field, an insulating layer which extends on a rear side of the field electrode device which is oriented away from the spatial area of the field, a screening electrode device which extends on the rear side of the insulating layer which is oriented away from the field electrode device and a field extinction electrode device which comprises an electrode surface which is oriented towards an extinction area. The field expansion electrode device and the field extinction electrode device are arranged in such a manner and impinged upon by voltage that the spatial area of the field and the extinction area are superimposed on each other in sections.
