Somewhere in this wonderful document is a section on the parametric transformer. Thank you Arrend for providing this document, it helped me immensely.
As you will see, you can use two "C" cores arranged in a special way to provide a small common but orthogonal flux path. In other words, the magnetic field of the primary and secondary are normal to each other. The primary acts to vary the reluctance of this common area. There is NO mutual magnetic inductance! Because of this, the secondary is free to oscillate just like a tesla coil.
You can actually pump this with DC pulses and get extremely clean sine waves out of the secondary! You can use this to create harmonics as well!
If you ground one end of the secondary and attach a top capacitive load then you still have a quarter wave machine with the voltage anti-node on the top load just like a Tesla Coil.
Find the secondary quarter wave resonant frequency (F) and pump the primary with (2F)
Pure magic!
