Is it really electronic modulation when the modulation is handled by pneumatically moving a polyethylene block? I would call that mechanically modulated. Electronic modulation would be, say, a transistor switching the output on/off.
- orbital-decay 5y ago[1] in the post above links to a different paper (referenced in OP), which describes exactly that. The researchers in the OP used mechanical modulation instead (which is far less interesting)
- hasmanean 5y agoCould they have used a Farnsworth fusor as a neutron source and electrically modulated it at radio frequencies?
