DIODE, MILLIMETER WAVE TYPE MIXER (3.2 MM).

Abstract

Temperature test results are presented on several sealed point contact diodes. Measurements have also continued on monitoring electrical performance versus diode age. Preliminary tests were conducted to insure that diode burnout would not be a problem. Millimeter wave VSWR measurements are compared between fixed tuned and variable tuned integrated waveguide-diode mounts. The last major problem of the program, that of providing a good IF VSWR, has been resolved. Tunnel diode mixers have been reinvestigated. A family of curves on conversion loss versus forward bias and local oscillator power is presented for one of the tunnel diode mixers. (Author)
