Abstract :
The 1961 PGMTT National Symposium features seven sessions at the Sheraton-Park Hotel (Sheraton Hall and Exhibit Hall) devoted to broad advances in microwave techniques, circuitry, measurements, and low-noise amplification. Twenty contributed papers make up four of these sessions, describing such topics as millimeter wave masers and quasi-optical surface waveguides, ferrites, parametric amplifiers, and plasmas. Seven ferrite papers are included in this group which describe X-band power limiters, new and improved microwave switches, absorption modulators and broadband isolators, octave-bandwidth cmc"lators for UHF, and frequency doubling wlth planar ferrites.
