RF Vacuum Microelectronics

Abstract

The results of the 12 month option portion of the research and development project on high frequency Field Emission Array (FEA) cathodes is presented. Details of structure capacitance and triode operation are discussed in detail. The results did not meet the program goals and the reasons for the lack of success relative to these goals and the outlook for this technology for use at microwave frequencies are presented
