Abstract :
DIELECTRIC AMPLIFIERS and modulators that use voltage-sensitive capacitors have been extensively described. In general, the capacitors employed were constructed of ferroelectric materials. This paper describes a dc-to-ac converter that employs the voltage-sensitive capacitance of silicon-junction diodes.
