MM and T Program for the Establishment of Production Techniques for High Power Bulk Semiconductor Limiters.

Abstract

The objective of this Manufacturing Methods and Technology Engineering Program is to establish the producibility of the X-band semiconductor bulk limiter and the X-band bulk semiconductor - lower power diode multistage limiter by mass production techniques. During the quarter, X-band semiconductor bulk limiters with power handling capability of 20-30kW were fabricated from new high resistivity silicon and were characterized for their RF performance along with multistage clean up limiter. Two (2) bulk limiter elements were mounted in a dual slot X-band iris to provide increased bandwidth. A new microwave circuit was implemented to provide the required operating bandwidth for the combined bulk limiter and diode clean up limiter stages. (Author)
