Pulsed high-voltage dc RF sputtering

Sputtering technique uses pulsed high voltage direct current to the object to be plated and a radio frequency sputtered film source. Resultant film has excellent adhesion, and objects can be plated uniformly on all sides.

Przybyszewski, J. S., Jr.↗

Fabrication of electroacoustic RF amplifiers

Anodic bonding of a lithium niobate piezoelectric crystal over a silicon-on-sapphire structure with the crystal mounted over a closely controlled oxide provides a point-contact mount for two rectangular slabs /one piezoelectric and the other a silicon semiconductor/ within 600 A of each other.

Trent, R. L.↗

Space station RF hazards

Harmful biological effects caused by exposure to microwave radiation including radio frequency power density in vicinity of space station antennas

Inman, R. A.↗

Broadband RF-distribution amplifier

Radio frequency amplifier to distribute reference frequencies within communications systems and provide automatic gain control with low phase distortion is described. Use of photocell in electronic circuit to produce desired conditions is explained. Operation of entire amplifier circuit is analyzed.

Lutes, G. F., Jr.↗

Interferometer using RF switching matrix

Radio frequency switching technique for single receiver and data processing channel to be used for phase movement measurement is discussed. Components of interferometer radio frequency unit, X-band receiver, and interferometer data processing unit are illustrated. Elimination of major measurement error source is described.

A guide to onboard checkout. Volume 7: RF communications

The radio frequency communications subsystem for a space station is considered, with respect to onboard checkout requirements. The subsystem comprises all equipment necessary for transmitting and receiving, tracking and ranging, command, multiple voice and television information, and broadband experiment data. The communications subsystem provides a radio frequency interface between the space station and ground stations, either directly or indirectly, through a data relay satellite system, independent free-flying experiment modules, and logistics vehicles. Reliability, maintenance, and failure analyses are discussed, and computer programming techniques are presented.
