  • Publication number: 20240097037
    Abstract: A transistor device includes: a semiconductor substrate having a doping concentration of a first dopant type; a highly doped source region of a second dopant type formed in a first surface of the semiconductor substrate; a first highly doped drain region of the second dopant type formed in the first surface; a gate structure arranged on the first surface and including a gate electrode formed on the first surface; and a first lightly doped region formed in the first surface and extending from the highly doped source region under the gate electrode. A channel region extends between the first lightly doped region and the highly doped drain region. The channel region has an average doping level of the first dopant type of n×10x that varies by less than 0.5×n×10X between the first lightly doped region and the highly doped drain region along the lateral direction parallel to the first surface.

  • Patent number: 7868273
    Abstract: In order to make it possible to direct sufficient microwave energy at a target with an electronic device which is to be interfered with or to be destroyed, the beams (7) from at least two antenna arrays (10) are focused on an effective area (8) in the vicinity of that target, preferably from a vehicle (3) which is equipped with these arrays (10). For effective super-imposition of the emitted microwave energy (7) in the emission direction of in each case one of the arrays (10), the use of an arc for discharging the capacitance (43) of the resonator via its spark gap (13) is observed, and is recorded quasi-continuously optoelectronically. The electrode separation of the spark gap (13) or the fluid pressure of the dielectric in the vicinity of the spark gap (13) is then varied by control elements such that all of the spark gaps (13) in an array (10) ignite virtually at the same time, so that their discharge current pulses which lead to the emission of the microwave energy (7) start virtually in phase.

  • Patent number: 7842907
    Abstract: A microwave generator (10) having a hollow central electrode (12) with a front face including hollow emmission element (18), and having an outer electrode (14), which coaxially surrounds the central electrode (12) along an axially extending resonator section (16). The two electrodes (12, 14) define a spark gap (36) and are connected to a high-voltage source (38). An ultracompact microwave generator (10) is implemented by the high-voltage source (38) being arranged in the hollow central electrode (12) of the microwave generator (10) rather than on the outside thereof.

  • Patent number: 7741783
    Abstract: A microwave generator has at least one resonator with two mutually opposite resonator electrodes which are separated by a spark gap. The spark gap breaks down when a high-voltage is applied. The resonator electrodes are designed in the area of the spark gap such that they result in a two-dimensional or three-dimensional section with a substantially constant, minimum electrode separation.

  • Publication number: 20080174469
    Abstract: A method and a system for defense against surface-to-air missiles (Manpads), which represent a threat to military and civil aircraft during takeoff and landing. For missile defense, the missile is jammed by irradiating it with electromagnetic jamming radiation. This jamming radiation may be constituted of continuous-wave irradiation or frequency packets with a defined pulse repetition rate.

  • Patent number: 7002300
    Abstract: Intensive microwave radiation in particular of great band width and energy over a relatively long period of time in the form of long pulse packets with a high pulse repetition frequency and a very high frequency spectrum can be achieved if microwave irradiation is effected during the discharge of a capacitive high-voltage generator (35) by way of the antenna (26) into a series of successive capacitors (13) to be connected in parallel. They are preferably constructed in the form of a concentric stack, connected to the antenna (26), of which the outer electrodes (16) which are at a reference potential are in the form of a continuous tube within which annular electrodes (15) are disposed on a carrier (20) in axially spaced relationship with each other in such a way that at the same time they act as the electrodes of arc switches (39) for successively switching on subsequent capacitors (13).
