  • Abstract
    More than one order of improvement of the saturation effect was achieved by developing low resistance channel wall material and improved H2-reduction processing condition and introducing non-uniform resistance distribution along the channel. The nonuniform resistance distribution was also found to improve life problem because it can compensate the resistance change near the output end of the channel caused by electron bombardment.
