THEORY:
The reflex klystron makes use of velocity modulation to transform a continuous electron beam into micro power. Electron emitted from the cathode are accelerated and passed through the positive resonator towards negative reflector, which retards and finally reflects the electron and electron turns back through the resonator. Suppose an electric field exists in the resonator, the electron travelling forward will be accelerated or retarded as the voltage at the resonator changes in amplitude. The accelerated electron leaves the resonator at an increased velocity. The electron retarded will leave at reduced velocity. The electron leaving the resonator will need different time to return, due to change in velocities. As a result, returning electrons group together in bunches. If the bunches pass through grid at such time that the electrons are slowed down by the voltage, energy will be delivered to the resonator and the klystron will oscillate.
PROCEDURE: CARRIER WAVE OPERATION 1. Connect the components and equipments as shown in the figure.

Put ON beam voltage switch (HT) and rotate the beam voltage knob clock wise slowly up to 300V meter reading and observe beam current position. (The beam current should not exceed 30mA). Do not change the Beam voltage while taking the reading 8. Change the repeller voltage slowly and watch milli ammeter for maximum deflection in the ammeter. 9. Tune the plunger of Klystron mount for the maximum output. 10. Rotate the knob of frequency meter slowly and stop at that position where there is lowest output current on milli ammeter. Read directly the frequency meter between two horizontal lines and vertical marker. If micrometer type frequency meter is used read the micrometer reading and use the frequency calibration chart. 11. Change the repeller voltage and read the current and frequency for each repeller voltage to get three different modes of the Klystron.
PRECAUTIONS: Change the frequency meter reading to minimum position after every reading of milli ammeter. Let the beam current not to exceed 30mA RESULT:

Micro Ammeter THEORY: A Gunn diode, also known as transferred electron device (TED) is a form of diode used in high frequency electronics. In gunn diode, there exists three regions: Two of them are heavily Ndoped on each terminal, with a thin layer of lightly doped material in between. When a voltage is applied to the device, the electrical gradient will be largest across the middle layer. Gunn diode with negative resistance characteristics can be used as an amplifier similar to tunnel diode but are very popular. Gunn diode oscillator circuit normally consists of a resonant cavity, an arrangement for coupling diode to the cavity, a circuit for biasing the diode and a mechanism to couple the RF power from the cavity to the external circuit as load. A coaxial cavity or a rectangular waveguide are commonly used. The circuit using coaxial cavity has the Gunn diode mounted at one end of the cavity along with the central conductor of the coaxial line. The output is taken using a inductively or capacitively coupled probe. The length of the cavity determines the frequency of oscillator.

BNC Cables 11. Slotted Line THEORY: Directional couplers are flanged, built in waveguide assemblies which can sample a small amount of microwave power for measurement purposes. They can be designed to measure incident and/or reflected powers, SWR (standing wave ratio) values, provide a signal path to a receiver or perform other desirable operations. They can be unidirectional or bidirectional powers. In its most common form, the directional coupler is a four port waveguide junction consisting of a primary main waveguide and a secondary auxiliary waveguide. A portion of power travelling from port 1 to port 2 is coupled to port 3 but not to port 4. Similarly, a portion of power travelling from port 2 to port 1 is coupled to port 4 but not to port 3. PROCEDURE: 1. Set the components as shown in figure. 2.

THEORY: Any mismatched load leads to reflected waves resulting in standing waves along the length of the line. The ratio of maxima to minima is defined as SWR. The maximum field strength is found where two waves are in phase and minimum where the two waves add in opposite phase. The distance between tow successive minimum or maximum is half the guided wavelength on the line. The ratio of electric field strength of reflected and incident wave is called reflection coefficient. The voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) is the ratio between max and min field strength along the line S= Emax/Emin= |

THEORY: The light emitting diode is a PN junction device, which emits light when forward biased by a phenomenon call electro luminescence. In all semi conductor PN junction, some of the energy will be radiated as heat and some in the form of photons. In silicon and germanium, greater percentage of energy is given out in the form of heat and Gallium phosphide (GaP) or Gallium Arsenic Phosphide (GaAsP). The number of photons of light energy emitted is significant to create a visible light source. Here the charge carrier combination takes place when electrons from the n-side ions at the junction combine with the holes on P- side. The characteristic of LED are observed by the use of photo diode. LED emits the light is observed by passing the light through fiber optic cable to the photo diode.

THEORY: Laser diode is a laser where the active medium is a semiconductor similar to that of LED. The most common type of laser diode is formed from PN junction and powered by injecting electric current. Laser diode is formed by doping a very thin layer on the surface of a crystal wafer. The crystal is doped to produce an n- type region one above the other, resulting in a PN junction or diode. Laser diodes are widely used in telecommunications as easily modulated and easily coupled light sources for fiber optic communication. Another common use of laser diodes is in barcode readers. Infra red and red laser diodes are commonly used in CD-players, CD-ROMs, DVD technology. Violet lasers are used in HD DVD and blur ray technology. High power laser diodes are used in industrial applications such as heat treating, cladding and for other lasers such as Diode pumped solid state lasers.

APPARATUS: 1. Fiber optic analog transmitter and receiver 2. Patch chords. 3. Fiber optic links 1m and 5 m length. 4. Inline SMA Adapter. 5. Mandrel.
THEORY: In optics, the numerical aperture (NA) of an optical system is dimensionless number that characterizes the ranges of angles over which the system can accept or emit light such that the NA of a beam is constant as the beam goes from one material to another material provided there is no optical power at the interface. The exact definition of term varies slightly between different areas of optics. In most areas of optics, especially in microscopes the numerical aperture of an optical system such as an objective lens is defined by NA= n sin Where n is the refractive index of the medium in which the lens is working (n=1 for air and n=1.33for pure water) is the half angle of the maximum cone of light that can enter or exit the lens.
