Abstract
Power amplification experiments are described which are based on the Gunn effect in gallium arsenide diodes. Coherent signals were obtained over a relatively wide dynamic range with small variation in efficiency. Although unsuitable for very weak signals, the principle appears to offer advantages for transmitters of CW, FM, and pulsed signals.
