Cecil,

Oh darn! There's that nasty reference to "resonator" again. You really
need to read the paper again and attempt to understand it.

Try the left-hand column on the page for the fundamental mathematical
limitation that underlies everything else on the page, including Figure 1.

Since this is a question of literacy and not technology there is little
more to be said here.
