Production Engineering Measures Solid State Microwave Oscillators for Fuzes.

Abstract

Work performed during the seventh quarter toward establishing a manufacturing capability for TRAPATT oscillators at 800 MHz and 4 GHz is described in this document. Continued efforts to optimize the deeply diffused TRAPATT diode are reported. Over 800 watts peak power at 0.84 GHz was achieved from a single diode at 34 percent efficiency. A miniature microstrip circuit for operation near 0.8 GHz is reported. An analysis is given which compares the fundamental and second harmonic extraction modes of TRAPATT oscillators. (Author)
