Abstract

In the course of an experimental investigation of the Manley Rowe oscillations, we have been led to define some of the conditions required for an ideal coupling between three travelling waves. It is shown that, because of homogeneity conditions, the only possible pumping wave is the electron cyclotron wave. Experimental values are given to within an order of magnitude for finite geometry.
