SEMICONDUCTOR AND O-TYPE AMPLIFIER INVESTIGATIONS.

Abstract

The purpose of this three-year research program was to investigate theoretically and experimentally interaction phenomena in O-type traveling wave devices and semiconductor devices. In the case of beam wave devices emphasis was placed on nonlinear interaction phenomena, stability of Brillouin focused beams in the presence of large amplitude rf signals, and electron gun design by means of the digital computer. Herein are reported the outcome and recommendation for the following research items: 1. Nonlinear Interaction Theories for O-type Amplifiers 2. Nonlinear Boundary Value Problems in Electron/Plasma Devices. 3. Beam Stability in the Presence of Large RF Signals 4. Beam Analyzer Studies on Beams Modulated by Large Amplitude RF Signals. 5. Digital Computer Electron Gun Programs 6. Relativistic Traveling Wave Tube Theory 7. Noise Studies in Magnetron Injection Gun Beams 8. Helicon Wave Propagation in Solid State Plasmas 9. Equivalent Circuits for Solid State Devices. 10. Instabilities in Solids 11. Solid State Materials Preparation.
