`ABSTRACT
`(57)
`A magnetic resonator includes an inductor comprising a con
`ductive first loop having a first dipole moment and a conduc
`tive second loop having a second dipole moment wherein a
`direction of the first dipole moment is substantially opposite
`to a direction of the second dipole moment and at least one
`capacitor in series with at least one of the first loop and the
`second loop.
