Coaxial Inverted Geometry Epitaxial Transistor

Silicon transistor, developed for use in biotelemetry circuits, provides high current gain at low levels of power and voltage. Device operates from biopotential or miniature batteries and is suitable for incorporation into monolithic integrated circuits. Coaxial configuration and small size offer promise for high frequency application.

Analytical and experimental investigation of the coaxial plasma gun for use as a particle accelerator

The coaxial plasma accelerator for use as a projectile accelerator is discussed. The accelerator is described physically and analytically by solution of circuit equations, and by solving for the magnetic pressures which are formed by the j cross B vector forces on the plasma. It is shown that the plasma density must be increased if the accelerator is to be used as a projectile accelerator. Three different approaches to increasing plasma density are discussed. When a magnetic field containment scheme was used to increase the plasma density, glass beads of 0.66 millimeter diameter were accelerated to 7 to 8 kilometers per second velocities. Glass beads of smaller diameter were accelerated to more than twice this velocity.
