  • Abstract
    A Gunn diode has been tested under the influence of 2.1 × 106R/h gamma radiation from a 1.5-MeV Van de Graaf generator. A slight decrease in output power was detected under radiation conditions which could be due in part to heat generation. No significant changes in performance were observed.
