Research on R.F. Coaxial Connectors, Broadband, High Temperature, Radiation Resistant

摘要

A report is given on the study and development of piece parts and assembly techniques leading to, and including, development of improved coaxial connectors for operation up to 1500 volts peak in a 50 ohm characteristic impedance line under severe environments such as -65 C to +500 C. temperatures and nuclear radiation. Work resulted in the development of a connector design that passes operational capabilities at high temperatures and is radiation resistant. A materials study was made to investigate possible materials suitable to the objectives of the contract. Advances made in the various phases of development during the life of the contract are covered extensively in the report. (Author)
