  • Abstract
    After a brief description of the evolution of the different classes of microwave valves, the principal modern types are discussed under the headings of their mode of operation : `O¿ type interaction, `M¿ type (crossed field), variable reactance amplifiers; and the maser. A brief survey is given of the performances obtained. 89 references.
