A modified comb-type slow-wave structure (s.w.s.) for travelling-wave masers is discussed. The dispersion relation is expressed in terms of the s.w.s. geometry and the admittances of coupled striplines. The slowing factor and the volume-filling factor, important parameters for travelling-wave masers, are discussed.

It is shown that low-frequency noise in an incandescent filament heated by direct current has two origins. One component of this noise is shown to be due to the high temperature of the filament and other due to the direct current. This explains the discrepancy between the measured noise levels and those predicted theoretically.

The absorbing lines observed in degraded GaAs-d.h.s. laser diodes cause increased local heating and higher threshold values. Since absorption is partly saturable by strong optical signals, the transient behaviour resembles that of passive Q-switched lasers.

A method is developed for determining the powers of companion system matrices of multivariable linear time-invariant dynamical systems. The iterative scheme, which can easily be programmed on a digital computer, is verified by an example.

A method for calculating the square root of the sum of two squared variables by a piecewise linear approximation is presented. Simplicity is obtained by restricting the number of 1s in the hard-wired coefficients and by using well suited intervals for the linear approximation. To obtain a small minimax error, a constant gain is introduced and optimised along with the coefficients.

The standard reference books on electron optics, Glaser (1952), Sturrock (1955) and Grivet (1972), do not consider the possibility that an electron beam can exhibit a series resistance, even at zero frequency. The letter demonstrates that a series-resistance term must exist. Numerical estimates of the series resistance are given, from which it is shown that the resistance is not negligible for the high-density electron beams used in modern millimetre-wave oscillators and amplifiers. The consequences for noise theory and for the theory of crossed-field devices, in which the beam resistivity is increased by a large factor, are briefly discussed.

Analysis of experimental data shows that a simple relationship connects the electron mobility with the donor concentration ND. At room temperature, the mobility is inversely proportional to 1+√(ND/1017) for a number of important semiconductors.

Ideal passive gyrators can be made using two operational amplifiers, and it has been proved that they cannot be made with only one amplifier. However, this latter proof led to the discovery that an ideal active gyrator can be made with only one amplifier. A circuit for doing this is presented here, and its behaviour when used in an inductance-simulating mode is analysed.

Measurements are presented to show that Yagi and resonant-slot antennas can be reduced in size if loaded with dielectric material. The effect on bandwidth, radiation resistance and the radiation patterns is discussed, and the loss in the material is recognised as the crucial parameter constraining the usefulness of this loading technique.

Measurements of the low-frequency noise in GaAs Schotty-gate f.e.t. channels have been performed from 10 Hz to 0.5 MHz between −120 and +21 °C. Diffusion and recombination noise sources appear to be predominant at low temperatures for low-power-level conditions.Nous avons entrepris la mesure du bruit basse fréquence prenant naissance dans le canal des f.e.t. à l'arséniure de gallium pour des fréquences allant de 10 Hz à 0. 5 MHz et une température comprise entre −120 et +21 °C. Nous avons mis en évidence que pour de faibles puissances dissipées les sources de bruit principales à basse température ont pour origine des phénomènes de diffusion et de génération recombinaison.
