  • Abstract
    It is argued that nonlinear capacitance junction diodes now available are suitable for very low-noise parametric traveling-wave amplification at UHF (and microwaves) without need for refrigeration and with low pump power requirements. Several experimental amplifiers have been built for UHF in coaxial and printed circuit forms. These are described.
