Abstract :
Results are presented for experiments in which circuit-controlled modes of acoustoelectric current oscillations were obtained in piezoelectric semiconductors. The reactive circuits used allowed a 6:1 tuning range from a single specimen. The possible realisation of bulk device r.f. generators giving large peak powers in the region of 1 MHz is discussed.
