  • Abstract
    A one-dimensional gain equation for the solid-state traveling-wave amplifier is derived including the effects of cold-circuit attenuation, diffusion, collision damping, and asynchronous drift velocity. It is shown that for the synchronous case a growing-mode solution exists. The gain of a typical InSb device is found to be +4.38 dB/cm.
