  • Abstract
    The paper deals chiefly with the early development of the modern crystal rectifier as used for the frequency convertor or mixer in centimetre-wave radar equipment. Details arc given of the design of the crystal capsule to provide high mechanical and electrical stability. The high-frequency performance of the crystal and methods of testing it are described, together with some applications of the crystal as a detector.
