Abstract :
Performance of frequency mixing with a vacuum transistor, which is composed of a vacuum transistor with a field emitter array (FEA), a collector and a control grid, was evaluated. The parameters of the current-voltage characteristics necessary to derive the performance of frequency mixing were obtained.
