Infrared spectrometer and interferometer, stable pulse amplification system, sterilizable vidicon, and other space instruments
Interaction between electrostatic and guided electromagnetic wave, considering plasma wave amplification by pumping at microwave frequency
Optimum length buffer crystals are used with an amplification section for measuring the noise figure for acoustic amplifiers. Measuring the time required to saturate with noise a signal, which is reflected back and forth in the circuit, gives a direct measurement of the amplifiers noise figure.
Comparison is made of the power consumed and the acoustic amplification realized when a dc bias field is placed across a piezoelectric semiconductor and adjusted to amplify a microwave acoustic signal to the point where the forward gain is just equal to the reverse attenuation. This represents the maximum possible gain condition.

Filters, formed by combinations of distributed RC elements with positive-feedback voltage amplifiers, provide transfer functions similar to those the heavier LC filters ordinarily employ. They also provide signal amplification.
Transducer consists of a hybrid thin film and a piezoelectric transistor that acts as a stress-sensitive device with built-in gain. It provides a stress/strain transducer that incorporates a signal amplification stage and sensor in a single package.
