PRODUCTION ENGINEERING MEASURE YIG SPHERES AND LIMITERS.

Abstract

A new sphere sizer has been designed and fabricated for use in rapidly grouping spheres according to their diameter. This new tool has been tested and found to enhance the efficiency of the sphere forming operation. The frequency instability problem encountered when subjecting the L band limiters to a varying temperature environment has been solved by careful adjustment of the permanent magnetic field in conjunction with a new sphere alignment technique. The insertion loss problem occuring in some L band limiters has been solved by a method of matching into and out of the Ga YIG coupling element. No single crystal material was fired during this reporting period. (Author)
