TUBE EFFICIENCY [5 records]

Record 1 2012-02-13

English

Subject field(s)
  • Vacuum Tubes (Electronics)
CONT

Review 2 : Extended Interaction Klystron(EIK). The EIK is an optimum blend between the klystron and coupled-cavity TWT [traveling wave tube] technologies achieving high peak power, efficiency, bandwidth and reliability at millimeter and submillimeter frequencies.

OBS

extended-interaction klystron: term officially approved by the Electronics and Telecommunications Terminology Committee.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Tubes et lampes (Électronique)
CONT

Le klystron à interaction élargie (KIE) est une technologie qui conserve la robustesse et la puissance du klystron conventionnel mais permet un raffinement sur les klystrons à deux cavités résonnantes et les tubes à onde progressive à cavités couplées. Le KIE permet de moduler en vitesse un faisceau linéaire d’électrons à haute puissance, comme le klystron, tout en ayant une bande passante plus grande que celle d’un tube à onde progressive.

OBS

klystron à interaction étendue : terme uniformisé par le Comité d’uniformisation des termes de l’électronique et des télécommunications (CUTEL).

Campo(s) temático(s)

OBS

klistrón: adaptación gráfica propuesta para la voz inglesa "klystron". El plural es klistrones.

Cap Mats and Strips. Matrix Technologies EVA cap mats and strips are engineered to maintain a strong seal at all times on tubes, microplates and blocks.... Each cap mat features alphanumeric designations as well as traditional row and column indicators to simplify orientation of the cap mat over the corresponding tubes or wells. 1mL cap mats or strips effectively seal 0. 75mL tubes, 1. 4mL tubes, 1mL blocks and 96 well microplates.... The SepraSeal [trademark] Cap Mat System allows each tube in a 96-tube rack to be sealed individually as easily as applying a standard cap mat. After the mat is sealed on the rack, simply remove the backing plate to leave each tube individually sealed. Caps are made of an advanced elastomer and offer an excellent vapor barrier for both water and DMSO even at temperatures down to-80°C. Sepraseal caps can be... pierced and resealed and are available as solid caps or pre-slit for easier piercing. For ease of use and maximum efficiency, we offer the SepraSeal cap-removal tool that can be used to remove a single cap or an entire row at once. Caps can then be reinserted into tubes or ejected.

CONT

Cap mats, piercing lids.

PHR

Pierceable cap mat.
